NABUUR is an online community that connects individuals with communities in developing countries, and together they formulate plans and projects to address local issues and sharing the solution-making.

Happy St. Paddy's Day! In sunny FL, we've been up for hours waiting for you to wake up - we're hoping you'll spread the luck o' the Irish & vote for us here after reading more about our entry.
