Dear Colleagues and Partners,

In 2005, WFWO’s and its Partners devoted considerable efforts and resources helping hundreds of Tsunami survivors around the region of disasters, we worked hand-in-hand with local communities to provide food, shelter and trauma care and we helped build temporary and permanent homes. We helped reopen schools and health centers and we helped poor families – who were the majority of the Tsunami victims – create opportunities to alleviate their poverty. The Tsunami wasn't the only disaster in 2005.

WFWO also provide assistance in Sudan, the hungry in southern Africa, Hurricane Katherine victims in the United States and earthquake survivors in Pakistan. At the same time we provided micro-finance grant to more than 1,000 poor farmers to create sustainable projects to help their family.

Is more than relief, food, water, cheater relief can take many forms. For those devastated by disaster, a bucket of clean water saves lives and a sense of purpose pave a path to recovery. This path to recoveries vitally important. At WFWO, we look carefully not just at the immediate need, but at the long-term mission. We know poverty and disaster go hand in hand. Poor people live in the most vulnerable places: coastal areas in the Indian Ocean and flood plains in Mississippi, and recognition of the fundamental rights of each and every person leave in this plant.

We are especially grateful for the many Donors, Partners and Volunteers, who made our work possible and we have the privilege of serving so many peoples who needed our helps.
