Jos, Nigeria, mostly known as a peaceful community, had to endure the death of over 200 innocents earlier in the week. What could of cause such an heinous act? The story dates to January 2010 where Sunni Muslims and Christians were at war with one another. Poverty, goods, religious beliefs and politics all played a contributing factor.

In retaliation of what happened in January, soldiers brutally massacred and claimed the lives of several JOS women, children and men on Wednesday, March 10th.

Currently helping the people of Jos in their time of need is La Sérène Gives Back-all donations will go to Jos.
