When natural disasters and armed conflicts happen, humanitarian aid becomes necessary to save lives, alleviate suffering and assure the dignity of those whose lives have been affected.
In these days, the Foundation honors the great work of our colleagues, volunteers, agencies and humanitarian organizations that work in emergency aid projects.
