RADArt4Aid Supports Direct Relief

What they do: @directrelief is a humanitarian aid organization, active in all 50 states and more than 80 countries, with a mission to improve the health and lives of people affected by poverty or emergencies – without regard to politics, religion, or ability to pay. Direct Relief's assistance programs are tailored to the particular circumstances and needs of the world's most vulnerable and at-risk populations. This tradition of direct and targeted assistance, provided in a manner that respects and involves the people served, has been a hallmark of the organization since its founding in 1948 by refugee war immigrants to the U.S.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Why we love Direct Relief: Direct Relief works in areas where governments and global markets are either unable or unwilling to engage in improving the health of people who are sick or hurt. ⁠⠀
