HOLLIS, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Since the first 7-point-8 magnitude earthquake hit Nepal in April, people from all over the world have flown in to offer help, or have donated to organizations offering aid.
A Maine EMT joined in the support effort, flying to a remote village near the Langtang National Park, north of Kathmandu, providing medical support and helping to clean up some of the damage.
Josh Logan joined Team Rubicon in 2011 after Hurricane Irene damaged his hometown in Vermont. He said he liked the fact that Team Rubicon combined the skills of military veterans and healthcare workers to help towns recover after disaster strikes.
His team worked for two and a half weeks in the village of Sermathang, offering medical assistance and working with the villagers on cleaning up and rebuilding.
"It's gonna be years before that village is back up and running," said Logan, who already plans on going back.
The second massive earthquake hit while the team was out there. Logan said his training as a first responder immediately kicked in and he worked to make sure the people he was with were okay. That quake knocked over more buildings and set the team back, but they continued with their recovery mission.
Logan said Team Rubicon is always looking for volunteers and donations to continue their aid. If you're interested in learning more, click here.
