Locally led. The last pot to boil. The last door to shut. A U.S. nonprofit (2024) focused on food, farming & survival in Gaza.

🍲 Gaza Soup Kitchen: Feeding 10,000 People Daily

As famine tightens its grip and markets collapse, Gaza Soup Kitchen is still boiling pots—feeding 1,000 people every day with dignity and determination.

We were the first soup kitchen in North Gaza to lean on local farmers and forage from nature to keep people alive. When others paused, we adapted. When supplies ran out, we improvised.

Today, we operate across 11 kitchens, run a community clinic, and deliver clean water and hot meals to hospitals—even in the hardest-hit zones.

This is survival work, done by people living through the very crisis they’re responding to.

Support the last pots still cooking.

Empowering vulnerable communities in Guatemala through education, healthcare access, and dignified housing solutions.

**In rural Guatemala, progress often comes down to one missing piece**: a computer, a clean stove, a safe roof, a scholarship. **ProChapina exists to provide those missing links** — practical tools that open real opportunities for children, women, and families to rebuild their lives with dignity.

**Rooted in community**, every project is designed to solve a specific barrier to wellbeing. Here's how we’re making change — and what it takes to do it:

Our Most Ambitious Dream: The ProChapina Community Home

Beyond individual programs, our greatest and most heartfelt goal is to build a **permanent community home** — a dedicated, multi-use facility where education, healing, empowerment, and belonging come together.

This **Cultural and Educational Center** will include:

- Computer labs for students and digital literacy
- Artisan classrooms and co-creation space
- Childcare and early learning area
- Community kitchen for training and nutrition
- Mental health and wellness room
- Multi-purpose classrooms and mentorship hubs

**Estimated cost for land, construction, and setup: $125,000**
This home will serve as an anchor for generations — a living legacy of dignity, education, and opportunity.

**Every donation matters. Every project restores dignity. Every supporter becomes a part of something greater than charity — a movement of lasting change.**
Together, we are not just filling gaps. We are building the future.

Keelworks Foundation is a 501c3; we get people to work. We've helped people get to work since 2009 with resume and job experience.

Everywhere we look, we see the unemployed and the economically disadvantaged. Some we look at and say, they get what they deserve, they did work hard and I did. You can look at this problem with compassion, understanding that it isn't that simple or you can look at it from the selfish perspective: their lack of contribution affects us. 

KeelWorks helps students transition to employment, others with some education practice in area related to experience to gain qualifications for greater responsibility. In both of these, thousands have come and left with paying jobs.

We are building the KeelMaster program to respond to the more challenged unemployed and under employed. This program requires comprehensive assessment to uncover and mitigate barriers as well as identify strengths. It then assigns to small facilitated teams where they learn eight core competencies (self-identify, critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, assertiveness, team-building, goal determination, and goal management). Teams stay together with facilitation pursuing goals and supporting each other for as long as it takes for all to be stable in employment. 

The KeelMaster program has prompted the development of a learning management system, a participant environment, a participant record, and several other applications designed and developed by volunteers. Some of these we hope to offer as a vehicle for funding the foundation and an endowment fund. 

For every life we change, we affect families, generations, communities, and nations. We all need to contribute and feel we are a part of some solution. We all deserve satisfying work. 

Keelworks Foundation

We promote, encourage and disseminate the importance and necessity of human and economic resource development for nonprofit orgs.

AEDROS - Asociación de Ejecutivos en Desarrollo de Recursos para Organizaciones Sociales, is a non-profit civil association that brings together professionals in fundraising in the third sector, whose objective is to generate a wide network of support and exchange.

The association was created in 2001 by a group of fundraisers from civil society organizations, who saw the need to defend the professional activity of resource development, promote transparency in the management of funds, as well as the responsible practice of philanthropy and volunteering in the social sector.

We are the first association of Spanish-speaking fundraisers in South America, which positions us as a reference organization in the country where we were born (Argentina) and in the region.

Currently, we are more than 260 members representing +160 civil society organizations, who -as in other professional associations-, promote ethical standards and good practices in the development of third sector resources to make it reliable and transparent.

According to its Statute, AEDROS is managed by a group of volunteer members, who constitute a Board of Directors, and the decisions taken there are implemented by a permanent Staff.

Other members, on a voluntary basis, constitute different work commissions (Members' Commission, Training Commission, Advocacy Commission, among others) in which lines of action are agreed upon and presented to the Board of Directors, and implemented by the Staff together with these Commissions.



In this line:

- We assist our members in improving the performance of their professional endeavors.

- We preserve and strengthen, for their mutual benefit, the existing ties and relationships among them.

- We promote ethical standards for the professional practice of resource development.

- We analyze and provide guidance in the solution of problems common to its members and, in general, we promote, encourage and disseminate information intended to benefit our members and the organizations and causes for which they work.



Our purposes are:

- To attend to all matters concerning the professional activity of resource development for social organizations.

- To train members in professional and academic improvement, providing them with leadership experiences.

- To organize and sponsor congresses, forums, symposiums, meetings or conferences, national or international, on the profession.

- To issue certifications that accredit professional excellence.

- To encourage the responsible practice of philanthropy and volunteer work in Argentina and the region.

What is Mutual Aid?

**Mutual aid is “cooperation for the sake of the common good.” It’s getting people to come together to meet each other’s needs, recognizing that as humans, our survival is dependent on one another.**

Mutual Aid is a practice and politics that emphasizes solidarity rather than charity. It means we recognize that our well-being, health and dignity are all bound up in each other. It means that we understand our survival depends on cooperation, not competition. In this particular moment, we see that our health is also dependent on other people’s health, and we can literally save each other’s lives. Rather than disengage and feel powerless, mutual aid allows us to plug in where we can make the most impact — locally.

Mutual aid IS...

- Getting people together in your community to provide material support to each other
- Building relationships with your neighbors based on trust and common interest
- Making decisions by consensus rather than relying on authority and hierarchy
- Sharing things rather than hoarding things
- Treating no one as disposable
- Providing all kinds of support, ranging from food prep to childcare to translation to emotional support, and recognizing the value of all of them
- A political education opportunity, where we build the relationships and analysis to understand why we are in the conditions that we're in
- Preparation for the next disaster (natural or economic). Next time around we'll already have relationships with each other and know who is vulnerable and needs support
- A great jumping off point for other kinds of organizing and movement work

Mutual aid IS NOT...

- Quid pro quo transactions
- Only for disasters or crises
- Charity or a way to "save" people
- A reason for a social safety net not to exist

DC Mutual Aid Network

The DC Mutual Aid Network (DCMA) is a grassroots community-led effort looking to take care of each other and keep our city as safe as possible.

- DCMA is a decentralized, community-led effort, so there is no single group that runs the network.
- There are autonomous groups for Wards 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Wards 7 & 8 are served together by one group.
- The DCMA Network is governed by the ward groups on topics of social media, website, fundraising, etc. The groups also share resources, best practices and offer referrals to other groups.

Ward 2 Efforts

Ward 2 Mutual Aid is part of the larger DCMA Network. Our concrete activities are:

- **Hotline** - Volunteers staff our warmline, where Ward 2 residents can call and request assistance.
- **Groceries** - We provide a grocery bag delivery to ~150 families that request it through our hotline or building captains. The bags include fresh produce, protein, dry goods, and requested household items.
- **Encampment Outreach** - We organize a supply drop to ~120 unhoused neighbors.
- **Building captains** - We organize with local residents to utilize their leadership and relational networks. Building captains check on neighbors, relay needs, and assist with food donations and distribution.
- **Back to school** - We organize with local parents to host a book and clothing swap.
- **Support for high risk/immuno-compromised individuals** - We have been partnering with local public housing buildings to drop off cleaning supplies, masks, and groceries.

We believe those closest to the issues are closest to the solutions. We fight to transform the housing system into one in which landlords and the real estate industry do not profit off historically marginalized communities, where tenants have power and decision making over their housing, and where young people have an influential voice in shaping the housing system. Through a deep commitment to transforming culture, community building, and leadership development, we build power that aims to provide young people with autonomy and control over our lives.

Kinyeti Foundation strives to develop the future core human capital of South Sudan.

Kinyeti Foundation is a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to increasing access to high-quality education for young people and promoting sustainable development in South Sudan. 

Kinyeti Foundation's Vision

Our graduates are globally competitive and competent, possessing the skills to create, lead, and to innovate in the global economy. 

Kinyeti Foundation's Mission

Our school mission will be anchored on three objectives:

1. To create a model facility, faculty, and program that can be scaled and replicated to meet South Sudan’s critical need for educated leadership at all levels.
2. To identify and recruit students of all genders with strong potential to achieve, regardless of background. 
3. To deliver a learning program that meets world-class standards, helping our students to cultivate rigorous intellect and knowledge as well as character and leadership. 

Kinyeti Foundation's Theory of Change

South Sudan is a young fledgling democracy. We believe that a great democratic country requires great leaders and that access to high-quality education is the most important factor in developing leaders of all types.

Based on that belief, our theory of change is that if the brightest young South Sudanese students acquire high-quality education, the students will gain access to the most competitive boarding high schools in the world, which will prepare them for the most competitive colleges/universities in the world; where they will gain world-class knowledge and skills, which will make them better leaders, innovators, and social builders committed to social change in our communities and our country.

Kinyeti Foundation

We work for the cause of disadvantaged children, introducing them to education and providing shelter, health care and counseling.

**Kalipay Negrense Foundation Inc.,** is a non-profit foundation working for the causes of disadvantaged children – the homeless, abandoned, neglected, malnourished, physically and sexually abused, victims of child labor and trafficking, foundlings. 

**HOW WE HELP**

**RESCUE > REHABILITATE > REINTEGRATE**

**Rescuing Child Survivors**
Our program is driven by singular goal:  to rescue and restore children who have endured the horrors of abuse.  We begin our intervention by ensuring the safe rescue and initial assessment of children who are homeless, abandoned, survivors of physical and sexual abuse, malnourished, victims of child labor, trafficking and online sexual abuse and exploitation.  It begins with referral, monitoring and identification in collaboration with law enforcement and the social welfare department. Once safely removed from harm, children receive immediate medical care and trauma informed therapy, social services and legal support.  We strive to help each child rediscover their strength, resilience and sense of self-worth.

**Recovered Treasures Home**
Our residential care facility provides a nurturing and secure environment.  Here, we strive to create a safe refuge where they can heal from their trauma, thrive and reclaim their sense of security and hope through therapy, support and recreational activities. Our dedicated multidisciplinary team of home parents, social workers, psychologists, teachers, nurses and support staff provides a comprehensive and individualized case management guiding all children towards healing and recovery.

**Kalipay Learning Center**
Our school provides formal education from kindergarten to high school. It offers a supportive and inclusive environment where every child can thrive academically, socially and emotionally. With dedicated licensed teachers, innovative curriculum and supportive community, children can learn resilience and continue to heal, learn, and grow.

**Kalipay Farm**
Our farm project serves as a hands-on learning experience that integrates environmental stewardship and sustainable living.  It does not only provide fresh nutritious produce for our residents but also serves as a therapeutic outlet, allowing children to connect with nature and engage in meaningful work.

**Alternative Child Care**
We work towards reuniting children into their own families. When that is not possible, we work towards alternative family placement (adoption and foster care) and prepare them towards eventual independent living in the community by providing them access to college or vocational education.

 Kalipay Negrense Foundation, Inc.

A non-profit organization focused on improving the quality of life of pets affected by houselessness and poverty in Southern OR.


Rogue Valley Street Dogs (formerly known as Street Dog Project) was founded in 2013. We first operated as a program of Friends of the Animal Shelter in Jackson County, Oregon. In 2021, Street Dog Project was established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We are a community service public charity that focuses on improving the quality of life of pets affected by homelessness and poverty.

Our primary mission is to provide free spay/neuter services for animals of the unhoused and no/very low income in order to improve the lives of animals and prevent overpopulation.

To establish trust and improve the quality of life for dogs and cats, we provide limited high-quality food, collars, leashes, harnesses, coats, and other items to help pets in need. We also provide vouchers for low-cost vaccine clinics and help with flea/tick/worm medications and veterinary care when able.

As we continue to make spay and neuter our priority, we believe that a holistic approach with an educational platform to provide long-term, meaningful help will improve the lives of dogs and cats and prevent more animals from entering shelters, being euthanized, or leading a life of suffering.

We strongly believe in collaboration and work closely with partners who serve the unhoused communities and animals in Southern Oregon. We provide food and gear and host outreach events where we distribute donations and work with people to spay and neuter their pets.

**Our Mission** is to fund and facilitate spay-neuter and essential support services to improve the lives of pets living in poverty.

**Our Vision** is to alleviate the suffering and tragic consequences of pet overpopulation in the Rogue Valley through education and compassionate action. We envision a community where dogs and cats of our most vulnerable are safe, healthy, and kept out of overcrowded animal shelters. 

**Our Values:**

- **Trust and Respect –** *We believe every person and animal deserves respect, kindness, and support without judgment.  Building a foundation of trust enables us to take meaningful, compassionate action.*
- **Education –** *Our focus is to teach about pet care and the importance of spay and neuter.  We also educate our clients about other resources for assistance. We strive to inform all in our community about the crisis of pet overpopulation and barriers to care for those most in need. Education is our most powerful avenue to change.*
- **Community –** *To be effective and sustainable, we cannot work alone; collaboration is key.  We welcome and build partnerships with human social service agencies, animal welfare groups, the veterinary community, local businesses, individual supporters, volunteers, and anyone who wants to improve lives on both ends of the leash.*
- **Safety –** *We are ever mindful of creating a safe space for all: animals, guardians, volunteers, veterinary partners, and members of the public.*

My Dog Is My Home's mission is to increase access to shelter and housing for people experiencing homelessness with animals.

My Dog Is My Home is a national nonprofit dedicated to increasing access to shelter and housing for people experiencing homelessness with companion animals. By securing their ability to maintain their most important relationships and find adequate shelter, we ensure every family’s right to build a home.

We assist service providers like homeless shelters in expanding their programming to allow humans and their companion animals to remain together. My Dog Is My Home’s programs currently fall into three categories: storytelling, community building, and technical assistance.

STORYTELLING
Storytelling is at the foundation of our work. We believe that people who are impacted by the problem are necessarily close to the solution. My Dog Is My Home provides a platform for people with actual lived experience of homelessness and animal companionship to share in their own words how co-sheltering people and animals together contributes to ending homelessness. Through exhibitions, speaking events, and video or narrated images, we are able to educate members of the public, program administrators, and policymakers about preserving the human-animal bond in circumstances of homelessness.

COMMUNITY BUILDING
We believe in the mantra that we are “stronger together.” My Dog Is My Home holds space for members of the homeless services and animal welfare communities to come together to connect, learn from one another, and solve mutual problems. Most notably, our community building efforts have created two related but distinct stakeholder watering holes: 

1) Annual Co-Sheltering Conference
Since 2021, My Dog Is My Home’s annual conference has drawn 400-500 people together from across disciplines to hear from homeless shelter programs about co-
sheltering models in practice, latest research in homelessness and animal companionship, and relevant policy efforts across the US and globally.

2) Co-Sheltering Collaborative
The Co-Sheltering Collaborative is a peer-to-peer learning network with membership that
spans across animal welfare and homeless services. This Collaborative meets as a large group on a quarterly basis to exchange resources, troubleshoot, and hear presentations from members on the progress of their work. In between large group meetings, working groups meet to produce deliverables that work towards collectively developed goals. The Collaborative also provides a sustained community for attendees of the annual conference.

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
My Dog Is My Home also works with homeless shelters that need more hands-on assistance with developing or implementing co-sheltering. We provide customized training, consultation on policies, and resource coordination to ensure a successful co-sheltering program.
