World Wide Humanitarian Aid is a non-profit organiztion dediated to helping people all over the world who lack the basic necessities of life. Our Portland, Oregon office is dedicated exclusively to the work going on in Belarus, a former Soviet sattelite country.
Our organization has been helping children, the elderly, and those with life threatening disease. We mainly look for projects that we can do that will have the largest impact on the most people.
Recently we provided showers for a school for deaf children. Before they had to walk over two miles one way to bathe in a public bath. Now they can use their own facility. Also, we helped a doctor begin a "visiting nurse" program for elderly shut-ins. Before our program these people had noone to cook and clean for them. Most could not even get out of bed on their own.
