The village of Newtok, Alaska is both sinking and eroding. From harsh weather conditions to strict environmental regulation, the people of Newtok are being held captive.
The mission of Newtok Moves is very simple: to move the 375 citizens of the village across the river to safety, providing new homes, and alternative energy to make the village completely self-sustaining and independent.
They're in danger and ready to move, but they need your help. Join us and help them get out of harm's way today.
