Impact

We are led by our commitment to protect and reduce the suffering of those who are most vulnerable in displaced situations.

In collaboration with our local and global partners, we provide shelter as temporary homes for displaced families to live in safety. We promote education by adapting structures to serve as community buildings and classrooms in which we facilitate schooling and development for displaced school children.

Thousands of our structures are used by medical NGOs to enhance health by providing vital care, saving lives and reducing suffering.

Beyond the numbers

A home is more than four walls and a roof. While temporary, it is a foundation for psychosocial health and integrity, and the starting point of a life in peace. No matter what sector we work in, our activities will impact several aspects of a person’s life.
