World Concern + ODW
| |
| Organization Profile: | World Concern provides life, opportunity and hope to suffering people around the world through disaster response and development programs. They in a variety of places, but excels at providing relief in areas not serviced by other agencies. In many of the countries where they work, the people who live there face significant political or religious restrictions. In all cases, we seek out the poorest and most vulnerable. World Concern's staff includes nearly 1,000 people, assisted by countless volunteers. 95% of World Concern employees are citizens of the countries where they work. By employing locals, it provides financial value so that donations can help more people. The background of these employees also allows us to better understand and overcome challenges faced on a daily basis. |
