Creating Pathways Out of Poverty

Our humanitarian aid applies across five (5) sectors to provide resources such as food, housing, and clean water. We also focus on supporting sustainable development initiatives for education, health, and enhancement of livelihood. Strong partnerships with local organizations, volunteers, and the support of our generous donor community allow us to create pathways out of poverty.

Food Security

Alleviate hunger through school feeding programs and monthly food kits, and support feeding centres. We address food insecurity through community gardens, green houses, and other long-term solutions that provide regular access to safe and nutritious food.

Housing and Community

Safe housing creates stable communities. We build new homes for the unsheltered and fund community infrastructures and social initiatives that promote community development and a sense of togetherness.

Education

Education is key to breaking the cycle of poverty. We unlock life-long potentials through scholarships, vocational training, construction of new educational buildings, and literacy programs for students of all ages.

Economic Empowerment

Empowered individuals have the means to support their existence. We provide tools, resources, and skills training, creating income-generating opportunities within communities as well as access to women's empowerment programs, encouraging independence and resilience.

Health

Access to healthcare helps save lives, especially for treatable diseases. We work to break barriers and provide access to clean water and enhanced health infrastructures, medication, medical supplies, and medical equipment.

Emergency Response

Support in-country partners following natural disasters and crises. We ship relief kits, water purification tablets, food, medicine, building materials, and other emergency supplies for aid and recovery.
