We feel a strong connection to them and are here to support them," expressed the spokesperson. "The idea behind the gathering is to inspire our volunteers and inform the community leaders about TEAM Aid's work," they elaborated. The group's website states, "We do not pity the wounded; we become the wounded." This sentiment was reaffirmed, highlighting that more than 3,000 TEAM Aid volunteers from the US and Canada contribute to repatriation operations and uphold families' dignity during these difficult moments.
