    The 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami caused over 230,000 deaths across 14 countries, notably Indonesia where over 2 million people were displaced in Aceh province alone. This unprecedented natural disaster prompted a record $13.4 billion in global aid, including $3.1 billion from the United States. The author's organization handled over $5 million of those funds to help thousands of donors. Nearly 10 years later, the author is returning to impacted communities and donors to explore the long-term effects of the disaster and philanthropic response.
