WHY
WE WANT TO HELP THE MERCY CORPS
Since 1979, Mercy
Corps has provided over $830 million in assistance to people in
80 nations. The organization's 2000 staff worldwide currently reach
6 million people in more than 35 countries. More than 91% of the
agency's resources are allocated to programs that directly assist
those in need.
With
headquarters
in the United States and Scotland, Mercy Corps is an international
family of humanitarian agencies that reaches more than six million
people each year. Their
Hunger
Site click program allows those who may not
be able to afford a cash donation to contribute towards food for
the hungry, paid for by site sponsors whose ads appear after each
click.
In
a matter of moments, a devastating tsunami took lives, families,
homes and dreams. Today, Mercy Corps is
delivering aid to over 250,000 survivors - standing
by them as they heal and reconstruct their lives. Today, Mercy Corps
is helping
communities lay the foundation for a stronger future,
developing long-term rebuilding plans to restore communities and
economic livelihoods throughout the affected region.
