Adopt-A-Landmine

Landmines don‘t ‘just‘ kill 19,000 children and adults every year. They deny land so that people can‘t grow enough food or access clean water, refugees can‘t return home, and children can‘t go to school. £1 clears approximately one square metre of minefield. One minefield at a time, we can give people the opportunity to reclaim their lives. Please help.
