Countless. The number of individuals, groups and communities that are working towards a Laos safe from leftover bombs. We couldnt begin to list all the acts of kindness and courage that led to creating greater awareness about this tragedy and renewed hope that we can work together to bring about change - for the people in Laos and our collective humanity. On July 15th, we will be honoring some key individuals and groups that exemplify the strength, creativity and passion that have contributed so greatly to this effort over the last decade. Congratulations to Legacies of Wars first Award Honorees: Senator Patrick Leahy, Rep. Mike Honda, Rep. Betty McCollum, @Rep. Eni Faleomavaega, Bangbay Siboliban, Phil Crean and Cora Edmonds, Manixa Thoj, Thoummy Silamphan and Minnesota Friends of Legacies.
