Save a life, save humanity
keeping individuals and opportunity alive
With 2011 classified as the driest year on record in the eastern Horn of Africa, the health, livelihoods and food security of millions of Somalis, Ethiopians and Kenyans are at serious risk. While Somalia is considered the epicenter of the crisis, much of the country is still inaccessible to international organizations. IMI began collaborating with local organizations in the region in August and continues to work with BETA Charitable Trust and Cooperation for Health and Education Programs (CHEP) to provide assistance with food, water, and livelihoods development. Over the last 7 weeks, CHEP volunteers have personally reached almost 12,000 households (approximately 90,000 individuals) in 37 separate villages and refugee camps. Volunteers dug shallow wells to provide access to cleaner water for use in farming activities as well. IMI's partnership with BETA Charitable and CHEP will provide immediate and long-term relief to those affected through continued food distribution, and increase in the rehabilitation of wells, and livelihoods development including farming support. The relief and recovery program targets not only the immediate malnutrition, but also provides a sustainable source for water and food, as well as income, for a healthier future.
It was an excellent conference well planned, presented, and well attended. If individually traveling we may have never enjoyed the kind of reception the participants received throughout their stay in Iran.
I want to thank you all for giving me such a great opportunity to be a part of your team (in Haiti). It was a unique experience and I really enjoyed working with you all.
Thank you very much for the wonderful work you do. I have seen it first hand in Karbala during the Arbaeen camps and my son was fortunate to participate in two of the missions. I have made a donation today.
If InshAllah, I secure a residency in the upcoming match, I will owe the organizers and the speakers at the seminar more than they will take credit for.
IMI has been my outlet for philanthropic work since before I entered into high school. It is through IMI that I see my efforts, here in New Jersey, manifest into something much greater around the world. IMI has helped me realize that ambition alone is not enough to change the world; in order to achieve the changes we wish to see in this world we require ambition, vision, and most importantly execution. That is why I have joined IMI, so that my ambition and vision can meet their execution.
