Osama Yacoub carries a tree to plant in the Egyptian village of Sakra. The campaign of tree planting is part of a project sponsored by the ACT Alliance and coordinated by Bless, the social development agency of the Coptic Orthodox Church. It provided economic assistance to families and communities affected by the political changes of the Arab Spring, when many Egyptians working abroad in Libya and other countries, or in the nation's capital Cairo, lost their employment.
