Review for Lutheran World Relief, Baltimore, MD, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Lutheran World Relief is a wonderful organization that really helps proclaim the Evangelical Lutheran Church's motto "God's work, our hands." They are among the first relief groups into troubled areas when disaster strikes and they stay long after the new media moves on to the next "big story." Their administrative costs are kept extremely low so that more funding can do into direct aid to the people who need it most. I can't travel to Haiti, for example, but I can collect items for health kits, school kits, sewing kits, etc. and donate money, knowing that it is going to a most worthy cause and will be put to good use, directing helping those who need it.

I have not directly experienced the results of this organization but I believe the stories, interview, articles I read about them.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Secure more funding for their work and more people to collect and donate items for their kits.

Role:  General Member of the Public & I donate money directly and thru my congregation; our women's group also collects items and assembles health kits and sewing kits. .
