Activities
Dorcas Aid America helps fund programmes that make a practical difference. In Romania, we support older people who live alone and lack access to basic care, through home visits, food packages and social activities. We also fund water, agriculture and health projects in the region.
In recent years, Dorcas Aid America has raised funds for emergency relief in Lebanon and contributed to long-term development projects in Ethiopia, including clean water supply and agricultural training.
Our Partner: MissionInvest
Dorcas Aid America works together with MissionInvest, a US-based organisation that shares our commitment to improving lives in vulnerable communities. Together, we are looking for additional opportunities to grow our presence and impact in the United States.
