To date, our volunteers have served humanity through 26 humanitarian relief projects in war zones, after earthquakes, floods or cyclones, around the world, the latest project was in Bangladesh for the Mora cyclone victims. We want everyone to be a humanitarian on Aug 19th to make it our 27th humanitarian project. |
