All Countries, All Races, All Colors, All Over

HELP (Humanitarian Efforts Lifting People) from NYC does extensive research to hone in on issues impacting impoverished communities world-wide. We connect with grass roots non-profits to promote sustainable solutions catered to the needs of local populations. From addressing the water crisis in South Africa to providing supplies to Cambodian orphanages that rescue children from scavenging in garbage dumps, HELP From NYC taps into a network of active donors, actively seeking solutions to endemic poverty.

Our team hits the tarmac ready to roll, contributing to local economies by purchasing and distributing goods inside a country’s own borders. Our focus is especially geared to immediate assistance for women and children.

We share economic good fortune with those less fortunate solely by accident of birth.
