WHERE WE WORK
LATIN AMERICA & CARIBBEAN:
In support of U.S. military humanitarian assistance programs, we have helped to set up schools throughout Latin America & the Caribbean. Thousands of children have benefited and the schools are in operation today.
PHILIPPINES:
School supplies, shoes, small toys and stuffed animals are distributed throughout rural communities in Mindanao to children who do not have shoes, who walk to school barefoot, and do not have basic school supplies. Homes are constructed using low cost, natural materials like bamboo and wood from the property when possible.
IRAQ & AFGHANISTAN:
In Iraq, working with U.S. military units in the Diyala Province to secure the distribution of school supplies. The first set of school supplies and backpacks arrived Balad successfully. In Afghanistan, we have the beginning of a long term system underway to handle future humanitarian aid.
Winning hearts of minds of those children and families becomes a critical element in the struggle for freedom. U.S. Army Civil Affairs units have been engaged in the winning of hearts and minds not only in Iraq and Afghanistan, but around the world for many years. Humanitarian assistance plays an important role in this mission. We have supported such projects for over 11 years.
The Founder and President is RADM Jeremiah Denton, former U.S. Senator from AL and Vietnam POW.
