Nordisk Hjälp (Nordic Aid) wants to change the way the public feels about refugees. We are focusing on fugitives in the Middle East, mainly children, women and the elderly, as we find their situation today frightingly inhuman. We wish to create opinion among the public and extend the international understanding as well as the understanding of human rights and their importance. We want to work against racism and help to create peace.Main Projects / Activities
We give essential assistance to people in need in the Middle East, i.e. we send or go there with food packages and clothing. We also provide medical assistance, send wheelchairs and ambulances, and give necessary school tools for pupils in need. We have 850 sponsors that each have a sponsorship for one orphan. We also work on new projects that aim to teach young people about human rights and the importance of volunteer work.
