Hunger and suffering is a special concern at GRE Consulting. The non-profits we work with in the Seattle area understand how deeply migrant and immigrant families are impacted by suffering in their country-of-origin. We partner with non-profits working in Kenya that has been the site of refugee camps for many women and children fleeing insecurity or famine. Access to safe drinking water is one core issue. GRE Consulting assisted in the development of a new non-profit that addresses access to drinking water around the world. Please take the time to see what is happening and join us in doing what you can to help. Here are some links to some folks we work with and/or support:

We assisted the Kigano family with IRS documents required for the formation of Likii Tender Hearts that is helping needy children in their hometown in Kenya. Please visit and support this grassroots and new non-profit: www.likiitenderhearts.org.

 

GRE Consulting assisted Salaam Urban Village Association (SUVA) in Seattle to win grant funding for technology to serve East African families living in the Seattle region. We were presented a grant award by the Mayor of the City of Seattle. For information on our partnership with SUVA , watch for updates on this website, or visit www.salaamurbanvillage.org.

 

There are a host of other organizations helping in so many ways. Please find and pick a way to step in and join in showing your care for families suffering in the Horn of Africa.
