A hot plate of food when it’s needed most. For people fighting or fleeing disasters, we are here. 

Ten years ago, my wife Patricia and I had a big dream to start World Central Kitchen. We envisioned an organization that would create smart solutions to hunger and poverty, and for many years we saw an amazing impact through our clean cookstoves initiative, culinary training programs, and social enterprise ventures that empower communities and strengthen economies. But we had no idea we would one day be answering the call in Puerto Rico and around the world – “Food First Responders” serving millions of meals each year. In the process, we learned that a small NGO can change the world through the power of food.

Last year, WCK activated in response to dozens of disasters — some of them natural, and some man-made. From serving children in the shelters on our border with Mexico to making deliveries by lamplight to those keeping watch over beaches in Indonesia, our fight to feed the hungry has taken us to more places than we ever expected.

At the same time, WCK continues planting roots in the communities where we work. Our Plow to Plate program is helping to create food resiliency in the face of future disasters. In Haiti, aspiring chefs are obtaining the skills and confidence they need to elevate their careers and the country’s tourism sector.

With your help, we have shown that there is no place too far or disaster too great for our chefs to be there with a hot plate of food when it’s needed most.

I hope you’ll dream with us as we envision a world where there is always a warm meal, an encouraging word, and a helping hand in hard times. Thank you for taking this journey with us.

Join me in fulfilling the inspiring words of John Steinbeck: Wherever there’s a fight so hungry people may eat, we will be there.

We must be there.
- Jose Andres, founder

World Central Kitchen

Global health organization striving to make health care a human right for all people, starting with those who need it most

Partners In Health is a social justice organization that responds to the moral imperative to provide high-quality health care globally to those who need it most. We strive to ease suffering by providing a comprehensive model of care that includes access to food, transportation, housing, and other key components of healing. We bring the benefits of modern medicine to those who have suffered from the overt and subtle injustices of the world, in the past and in the present. We refuse to accept that any life is worth less than another.

Our mission is to provide a preferential option for the poor in health care. By establishing long-term relationships with sister organizations based in settings of poverty, Partners In Health strives to achieve two overarching goals: to bring the benefits of modern medical science to those most in need of them and to serve as an antidote to despair.

We draw on the resources of the world’s leading medical and academic institutions and on the lived experience of the world’s poorest and sickest communities. At its root, our mission is both medical and moral. It is based on solidarity, rather than charity alone.

When our patients are ill and have no access to care, our team of health professionals, scholars, and activists will do whatever it takes to make them well—just as we would do if a member of our own families or we ourselves were ill.

Our Core Beliefs:
-    All human lives have the same value, and every human being has the inalienable right to be healthy to fulfill their potential.
-    The right to health is not the only right held by our patients. Other fundamental human rights are interrelated and just as inalienable.
-    All people need to stand in solidarity with those who find themselves at the margins of modern society.
-    The playing field needs to be leveled for those individuals who are born at a disadvantage (equity vs equality).
-    Injustice is not accidental but a direct result of structural violence and oppression. We can fight injustice by changing those dynamics.
-    It is our moral call to action to expose social injustice and to work toward correcting those systemic forces that create inequalities, no matter how impossible or challenging this task might look.

Leading our community to ensure that anyone who needs a healthy meal can get one.

Second Harvest and our partner sites are the only grocery stores for the most vulnerable members of our community and one of few networks open as we "shelter in place."

During public health crises like the COVID-19 outbreak, kids and families on the brink of poverty are disproportionately impacted. When schools are closed and hourly wages are scaled back, the service we provide is even more critical. Yet we're facing unprecedented challenges ourselves, with rapid changes to our volunteer workforce and distribution networks.

As our community responds to the COVID-19 outbreak, Second Harvest of Silicon Valley remains committed to our mission knowing that our most vulnerable community members are deeply and disproportionately impacted by public crises such as this. We are in ongoing communication with our partners, staff and volunteers to maintain safe practices that will ensure nutritious food continues to flow into the community.

On Monday, March 16, 2020 food banks were officially named by the California Department of Public Health as an essential service provider. Because of this important inclusion in the CDPH’s guidelines, we expect to remain fully operational so we can continue serving our community.

As the crisis continues, we expect to see an increase in need as community members are furloughed, losing hourly wages and forced to deplete savings while still providing for their family. Food Hotline: 1-800-984-3663

The Food Bank continues to do the day-in and day-out job of making sure vulnerable neighbors get the food they need. Now, we are putting solutions in place, one by one, to be able to continue providing food and helping our community prepare for whatever challenge the COVID-19 presents.

Every year, the Food Bank works with poverty and hunger researchers to try to understand the food needs of low-income San Francisco and Marin residents. This report, called ‘Missing Meals in San Francisco and Marin’ is a look at the meals we provide to our community’s low-income residents through nonprofit and government food programs, and how many more meals are still needed to fill the gap.

This research provides a rigorous assessment of trends in the food landscape in both San Francisco and Marin Counties, and the role of government and nonprofit food providers in meeting ongoing food needs.  The report finds that there are a staggering 35 million missing meals in our service area, meaning that despite historic gains in our local social safety net, we still have much more work to do in our fight to end hunger in San Francisco and Marin.

Overall socio-economic development of the underprivileged communities, especially children and women.

Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) came into existence as a result of the motivation and personal initiative of its founder, Mr. Ramesh Kasondra, to enhance the socio-economic status of the underprivileged people. Hailing from a rural family, the founder was no stranger to hardships faced by the underprivileged. Having overcome economic and social challenges, due to the backing and economic blessings from certain elder society leaders, the founder set out to do his best to make a positive difference in the lives of fellow underprivileged.

Working with a team of committed people, GVT’s aim has been to secure integrated development through people’s participation. The key areas identified for interventions include child rights, education, health and hygiene, sustainable livelihood, and women empowerment. Our efforts have developed lasting association with government, non-government and corporate organizations as also with the communities and groups with whom we have worked.

We have come a long way following a small beginning in June 2001, and have implemented a wide variety of projects related to child rights for change, reproductive child health care, quality education, watershed development, wasteland development, tribal development, low cost sanitation, alternate energy sources, self-help groups, vocational training to youth, and women empowerment in Bharuch and Narmada Districts of Gujarat state in India.

The Rome Biomedical Campus University Foundation is a non-profit entity.

The Rome Biomedical Campus University Foundation is a non-profit entity with the objective of supporting Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome to serve the mission and the ideals of humanistic-scientific integration. The Biomedical University Foundation arises from the awareness that the future of University Institutions depends very much on their financial independence which cannot be based exclusively on ever more tightly controlled public funding or on occasional acts of philanthropy. The pursuit of excellence has high costs and necessarily leads to plans to finance long-term projects. Looking ahead, scientific and economic research and clinical health activity will become increasingly fascinating but also more challenging and competitive. These considerations have led to the creation of an Endowment Fund - similar to that of other important European and international university institutions - at the service of the mission and activities of teaching, research, health care, international expansion and humanistic-scientific integration of the Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome.  The Foundation is working to strongly incentivize "benevolence", both that which originates from companies and private individuals, and that which comes from institutions. In the last year the Foundation raised funds for research projects on Alzheimer, Genetic Laboratory and Campus Covid Center, a major challenge not yet over against Covid-19.

Help us prevent, diagnose, and cure heart rhythm diseases, a leading cause of sudden cardiac arrest and death worldwide.

**Heart Rhythm Diseases: Over 50 million people affected worldwide**

Atrial fibrillation, sudden death, heart failure—these heart rhythm diseases, whether chronic or acute, and sometimes silent, can affect anyone at any age. They lead to serious complications and cause hundreds of thousands of deaths each year. Thanks to our research, improved screening for at-risk individuals and new treatments will help protect the health and lives of more patients in the future.Bringing together national and international expertise from many disciplines within a single institute, Liryc is committed to  advancing medicine and providing better care for patients with heart rhythm disorders.

Liryc, through its unique multidisciplinary and international infrastructure, promotes collaboration between research teams, clinical teams and economic players, which enables the emergence of innovative projects to invent diagnostic tools, cutting-edge medical devices, and therapies of the future. 

**Why support Liryc?**

Heart rhythm disorders are responsible for 30% of cardiovascular diseases. These disorders—such as atrial fibrillation, ventricular fibrillation, and heart failure—stem from electrical failures in the heart and affect millions globally. Whether chronic, acute, or immediately fatal, these conditions do not discriminate by age and could affect anyone, including you or your loved ones. Heart rhythm disorders result in:

- 20% of all strokes worldwide,
- 325,000 sudden cardiac deaths annually in the United States, 90% of which are fatal,
- 1 million hospitalizations for heart failure each year in the United States.


**Donate to advance cardiology research**:

The devastating toll on lives makes finding solutions urgent. Your support allows us to combat heart rhythm disorders by improving prevention, treatments, and training for healthcare professionals. Donations help:

- Fund new research projects to better understand cardiac electrical disorders,
- Purchase state-of-the-art equipment to provide experts with the best technology available to drive medical innovation,
- Support education and training programs to spread knowledge to more healthcare centers worldwide, ensuring patients benefit from the latest advances in treatment.

As Professor Michel Haïssaguerre, Founder and Honorary President of Liryc, explains:
*"Sudden death causes as many deaths in France as breast, lung, and colon cancer combined—50,000 deaths per year, or one death every 10 minutes."*

The problem: In Kenya, women are significantly disadvantaged both socially and economically. 

About Buildher The problem: In Kenya, women are significantly disadvantaged both socially and economically. Over half the female population lives below the poverty line ($3.10/day), less than 50% of girls are educated beyond primary school level, and young women in urban areas are more likely to be unemployed than any other group. Meanwhile, Kenya has an alarming lack of skilled designers and construction professionals and booming demand for urban development, particularly housing. This high-potential sector is currently male-dominated, with women representing less than 3% of those it employs. By the end of this century, 40% of the global population will reside in Africa. By 2030, more than half of Africa's population will reside in cities. We are working to ensure that women actively contribute to and benefit from this urban development. Our solution: Buildher recognizes an opportunity in this problem. We designed and deliver an innovative technical training and employment program exclusively for low income earning women that produces semi-skilled artisans and places them with construction industry employers. Our model is designed by women, for women: It enables participants to earn as they learn, significantly increase their earnings, and secure a professional certification that creates opportunities for career growth. Our goal: Buildher will train and empower thousands of Kenyan women through construction. In the process, we will develop a replicable model for gender integration in our industry to deeply impact hundreds of thousands of women across the continent. Buildher equips disadvantaged women in Kenya with accredited construction skills leading to greater financial prosperity, changing male attitudes and promoting gender equality within the construction industry.

Providing affordable, quality, medical, dental, mental health & pharmacy services through our 5 Los Angeles locations since 1967. 

We’ve come a long way since we opened our doors as the Los Angeles Free Clinic in the Summer of Love, 1967. From a single storefront on Fairfax Avenue, we are now the Saban Community Clinic, with four health centers and one satellite site providing comprehensive medical, behavioral health and dental care plus access to social services.

While a lot has changed over the past 50 years, our founding belief remains the same: that healthcare is a right, not a privilege. The integrated and holistic approach to treating the entire individual, which we pioneered five decades ago, is practiced today as Whole Person Care.

We are a Block of Social Impact Leaders and Entrepreneurs of the Favelas.

G10 Favelas is a non-profit organization. We are a Block of Social Impact Leaders and Entrepreneurs of the Favelas and all donated money is donated to goods for the communities. We are leading a community of humanitarian professionals to create a future where everyone can thrive. We have already delivered basic baskets, lunchboxes, hygiene kits, masks and a more dignified life for more than 500 thousand people.  And with your help, we can DOUBLE that number. Brazilian communities are large families, supportive, warriors, resilient. We fight and face our difficulties and urgencies always together. In 2020 and 2021 we delivered hundreds of thousands of hygiene kits and food baskets, with the support and solidarity of thousands of supporters. In order to continue serving our population, we need the help of everyone who can contribute. Every donation makes a difference. To support families with a basic basket and hygiene kit, it costs R$ 150.00 per month, like US$ 30,00. The strength of solidarity in this very difficult year proved capable of facing the challenges and we count on your support by contributing or sharing the campaign.

However, we can positively affect the lives of our descendants, and avoid major catastrophes that could destroy their future.
 
Contributions are invested for long-term gains, initially in a low-fee Global Stock Index Fund. When a critical time, need, or opportunity arises, we step in to make a grant. Taking a patient approach allows us to wait for a point in time when the highest-impact opportunities are available, which may be years, decades, or even centuries ahead.

### Our Approach to Grantmaking
We're not designed to be a frequent grantmaker; we are primarily an investment account until we reach an extraordinary time and opportunity. Until those moments arise, each year we will make small grants at less than 1% of the Fund's size to the best available opportunities we are able to find in that year. These small grants will build up our grant-making infrastructure and track record. Grant decisions will be made by a dedicated management committee, all with a strong network and expertise on how well-timed grant-making can safeguard the future.

### Frequently-Asked Questions
**Can charities apply for money from the Fund?**
The Funds do not generally accept applications from charities, and we request that charities do not send unsolicited applications for funding. If the Fund Managers choose to open up an application round, this will be publicized.

Promotion of Humanities and Sciences in Germany 
 


The Donors' Association The DSZ – International Giving Foundation was founded by the German Donors' Association for the Promotion of Humanities and Sciences in Germany. The Donors' Association was established as joint initiative of the German economy in 1920 and advocates sustainable improvement of education, science and research in Germany. It is simultaneously sponsor of the donation system and trustee of charitable foundations. The Deutsches Stiftungszentrum (German Foundation Centre)is the service centre of the Donors' Association for benefactors and foundations. More and more private persons and companies are taking on commitments in coalescent Europe and across the world. But well-intended help frequently fails to overcome bureaucratic hurdles. For example, German tax legislature denies donation deductions to organisations outside of Europe. Donations are theoretically deductible within the EU but in reality, this can generally only be achieved with excessive expenditures for donor and recipient. The DSZ – International Giving Foundation is recognized as a tax-privileged organisation. It pursues all purposes recognized in Germany as charitable and benevolent. The DSZ – International Giving Foundation supports the international project specified by the donor and takes care of the complete administrative process. The donor receives a donation receipt valid by German law. This offer is not only for donors who are looking to support an organisation abroad or for alumni of foreign universities but also for non-profit organisations not registered in German who are looking to collect donations in Germany.

Dedicated to deepening health literacy and building health equity through the transformative power of music, art, and science.

Hip Hop Public Health (HHPH) is an internationally recognized 501c3 that harnesses the transformative power of music, culture, and science to improve health literacy and promote health equity in communities of color. We have a 15-year track record of creating culturally relevant science-based content using our evidence-based framework for health promotion and behavior change, the Multisensory Multilevel Health Education Model (MMHEM), and our framework for Child-Mediated Health Communication that focuses on children as messengers for disease prevention and health promotion interventions with parents and caregivers. All of our 200+ educational resources are available to stream and download for free, removing access barriers for teaching, learning and health literacy.

Founded by Dr. Olajide Williams of Columbia University, a world-renowned leader in community based behavioral intervention research, the HHPH transdisciplinary team is a unique collective blending socially conscious creatives along with health and education professionals, nutritionists, public health researchers, physicians, behavioral scientists, and a rotating youth advisory board. HHPH’s founding artist, the legendary Doug E. Fresh, has cultivated an iconic artist advisory board including Darryl DMC McDaniels from Run DMC, Chuck D, Jordin Sparks and Ashanti in addition to multi-platinum music composers and producers.

HHPH’s approach maximizes engagement by facilitating cultural and emotional connections with the content using a variety of platforms and technologies, while earning trust through the use and social capital of credible messengers. Hip hop music is a particularly effective learning tool due to its ability to incorporate multiple literary devices, such as rhymes and spaced repetition which are known to enhance learning and memory. It is also a cultural tool that enables tailoring to certain communities while incorporating credible messengers (hip hop icons, celebrities, etc.) in its delivery. As the most popular genre in the US, hip hop has mass appeal.

Ensure that needs of women, children and other vulnerable communities are responded to.

The world has never faced a pandemic with the potential to reach us all at the same time. While case counts vary, it's clear that Coronavirus is spreading across every country and territory.  Amongst the myriad global communities whose lives and livelihoods have already been affected, are 88 million vulnerable people in southern Africa that are, by social and economic circumstance, at greater risk of suffering from the implications of the virus.  At the heart of the responses to Coronavirus, we must care for those living at the margins of economic and political systems to follow the measures required to flatten the curve, curb the spread and begin the journey to healing. The Southern Africa Trust's work with Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and social movements across 16 countries to support their immediate needs, while simultaneously mobilizing their voices to influence the response strategies that various governments are putting in place. We focus on  women in rural areas ,  ex-miners ,  informal and cross border traders ,  domestic workers ,  small scale farmers ,  migrant workers and refugees . Vulnerable communities urgently need fact-based guidelines, practical solutions, as well as linguistically and culturally contextualised information in order to ensure prevention, detection and protection from Coronavirus. The Trust is calling on philanthropic foundations, development agencies and corporates to answer the call of the vulnerable and the CSOs that serve them by giving responsive funding, financing and other resource donations. We seek to raise $5 million USD to deliver the vital needs required.  Your solidarity in this time of extreme need will restore the dignity and voices of those who at the greatest risk of Coronavirus. About the Southern Africa Trust The Southern Africa Trust is a leading convener and facilitator of resources for 200 CSO partners running over 350 programmes and initiatives.
