TRACK OUR HUMANITARIAN AID SHIPMENTS & DISTRIBUTIONS
Stay up to date on our international aid shipments and distributions here! Our International Aid, US Border Aid, and Utah Refugee Aid programs, operated out of our Humanitarian Aid Warehouse in Utah, collect, sort, pack, ship, and distribute supplies to refugees around the world. We carefully sort and pack items, making it easier for the aid to be distributed when it arrives. And we are in contact with teams on the ground to ensure that we only send what is needed. Why do we often ship aid instead of acquiring it locally? Click here to find out.
The aid distributions pictured above were made possible by your generous support. Thank you!
