Mercy
Corps alleviates suffering, poverty, and oppression
by helping people build secure, productive, and just communities
around the world. Mercy Corps is on the front line of global crises
such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and hurricanes.
The
Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN) operates
America's only national hotline for victims of sexual assault and
abuse. The hotline (800-656-HOPE) offers free, confidential counseling
and support 24 hours a day, from anywhere in the country. Founded
by Tori Amos and Atlantic Records in 1994, RAINN has helped more
than 1 million assault survivors and was declared one of the top
100 nonprofit organizations in the United States by Worth magazine.
Program
for Torture Victims alleviates the suffering and health
consequences of torture through psychological, medical, and social
services to victims of state-sponsored violence. In many cases,
proponents of free speech and democracy are vocal about their views
and their oppressive governments tortures them. PTV helps these
torture survivors and reunites them with their families.
Children
of the Night helps abused children between the ages
of 11 and 17. They provide housing, food, education, medical and
psychological care. They help lives of hundreds of children each
year and
are one of the most well-run nonprofits we have ever seen.
