TSF provides a life line for refugees from the DRC

In over-crowded Ugandan refugee camps, without telephones or even electricity, Télécoms Sans Frontières (TSF) is reconnecting families and offering a peace of mind in the midst of a difficult situation. With funding and support from the UN Foundation and Vodafone Foundation, TSF is providing thousands of refugees with free, satellite-based phone calls to family and loved ones who have been separated while fleeing the recent violence in the war-torn Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). TSFs Oisin Walton reports from the field.
