Ten-year old Fathan Nur Selani helps arrange bottles in her mother's small business on the beach at Lhok Me, in Indonesia's Aceh province. The girl's mother, Rusmiati, sells coconuts and soft drinks to tourists on the beach. The 2004 tsunami struck the coastal village when Fathan was just three weeks old. YEU, a member of the ACT Alliance, worked with the village to build new houses in a safer area, as well as help revitalize their income generating activities, including Fathan's mother's small business. The tsunami killed 221,000 people in Aceh province and left more than 500,000 displaced.
