Burners Without Borders
Burners Without Borders (BWB) is a community-led NGO which initiates civic works projects and disaster relief in local communities around the globe.〔(Burners Without Borders )〕
== Overview ==
Burners Without Borders formed in 2005 when Burners (Burning Man attendees) volunteered in the Hurricane Katrina disaster area. The group was originally named Temple to Temple Crew as they rebuilt a Vietnamese temple. The organization was renamed Burners Without Borders as volunteers continued to do Gulf Coast cleanup and help people rebuild their devastated communities.〔http://www.burnerswithoutborders.org/faqs〕 As the volunteer numbers grow, BWB has emerged to address projects globally. Efforts such as in Pisco, Peru a city hit by a magnitude 8.0 earthquake in the 2007 Peru earthquake, Burners Without Borders worked alongside 154 volunteers from 23 nations and such humanitarian groups as the International Committee of the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders. In 2011 BWB participated in relief efforts in Japan, following the Fukushima disaster in the remote Tohoku Prefecture. Other efforts include building bottle schools in Guatemala, delivering relief supplies to Haiti〔(Afterbur Report 2010 )〕 and relief efforts to areas not receiving relief assistance in New Jersey following the devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy.〔(Burners Without Borders’ Sandy Relief Efforts ) Carmen Mauk〕
Burners Without Borders is part of the Burning Man Project, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.〔
