HELP - help to selfhelp is a German non-governmental charity organization founded in July 1981 by Members of Parliament of all parties represented in the German
parliament and other distinguished personalities. After the very first years of its existence HELP started to continuously expand its humanitarian work to other
countries. Aid is given regardless of the race, creed or nationality of the recipients and without adverse distinction of any kind. Aid priorities are calculated
on the basis of need alone.
Whenever possible HELP is linking emergency aid with selfhelp. Aim is to encourage the efforts made by the communities affected by catastrophes and misery in
order to have them improve their living circumstances themselves. For this reason HELP is closely cooperating with indigenous partners and NGOs knowing that these
people are best familiar with local conditions, culture and needs. With its projects HELP is not only covering immediate humanitarian needs, but fighting the causes
as well thus aiming at durable solutions. For all projects and programs HELP count on public donations.
