Examples of Our Worldwide Projects

  • In 2006, we assisted more than a quarter-million beneficiaries
    in the war-torn Democratic Republic of the Congo alone.

  • Within a week of the 2005 earthquake in Asia, we set up a mission
    and delivered 30 tons of food and water supplies to thousands of
    newly homeless Pakistanis.

  • Following a 2005 hurricane in Haiti, we set up water-and-sanitation
    sources to benefit 40,000 victims.
