Help - Hilfe Zur Selbsthilfe E. V.

Help-Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe e.V. is a German non-governmental relief organisation duly registered with the courts of law in Bonn. In the wake of the war in Afghanistan and thereby caused refugee crisis, members of Parliament of all parties represented in the German Parliament and other distinguished personalities founded Help. Having provided humanitarian assistance for Afghan refugees fled to Pakistan, Help has enlarged its relief assistance to numerous countries. The organisation Help provides assistance based on the real needs regardless of the race, creed or nationality of the recipient. Help today has been active worldwide in emergency assistance as well as in rehabilitation and development projects. Whenever possible we are linking emergency aid with self-help. One of the basic aims of Help is to encourage the efforts made by the communities affected by the catastrophes and misery in order to have them improve their living circumstances themselves. Therefore, Help is closely cooperating with indigenous partners and non-governmental organisations, knowing that these people are best familiar with local conditions, culture and needs. With its projects Help is not only covering immediate humanitarian needs, but also fighting the causes which resulted in humanitarian catastrophes thus aiming at durable solutions. Trying to work most effectively Help is coordinating its project activities with all national and international organisations.
