A woman who has recently been displaced from her village in South Kivu due to ongoing violence was one of thousands of beneficiaries at a Non-Food Items Fair the International Rescue Committee organized this month. She exchanged her $75 vouchers for objects of first necessity – including iron sheets to cover a house she hopes to build soon in a safer area.
