Disaster Relief

When natural disasters and manmade crises strike, local transportation systems collapse and supply chains are disrupted, our foundation is there to help. Our promise is simple: when people are in crisis, they will get the help they need — whenever they need it, and wherever they are.

Today, more than 90 percent of the losses in human life from natural disasters around the world occur in poor countries and, according to the UN, conflicts have forced 20 million people to live as refugees in foreign lands or as internally displaced persons (IDPs) in their home countries.

To assist countries and communities that have difficulty responding to the tragic losses and extraordinary costs of natural disasters and conflict-induced crises, AmeriCares launches emergency response initiatives for four emergency phases:
Phases of Emergency Response
Preparedness - Pre-positioning of supplies and trauma & emergency medical training for first responders Relief - Immediate delivery of medical & humanitarian aid for survivors
Recovery & Rehabilitation - Restoration of damaged health care infrastructure Reconstruction - Long-term rebuilding of devastated communities

Disaster Relief - to support disaster relief efforts of recognized national, regional and local agencies, and to provide disaster relief to Office Depot associates who have experienced catastrophic loss.

Medical Assistance

Close to 2 billion people — one-third of the world's population — have inadequate access to medicines; the majority of them live in developing countries. The people living in these areas are not just victims of news-making catastrophes; they also suffer from ongoing “silent disasters” caused by grinding poverty and a lack of access to medicines.

Poor health and poverty are inextricably linked. In vulnerable areas, children die from preventable or treatable illnesses, adults with debilitating chronic conditions can no longer provide for their families and whole communities are threatened by infectious diseases.

Resource-constrained health care institutions serving the poor communities often lack sufficient medicines and supplies to diagnose conditions and provide life-saving and life-changing treatment. These shortages originate from economic limitations as well as disruptions in supply chains, logistics challenges and political and administrative obstacles. To provide quality care for indigent patients, the health care institutions and health care professionals have an ongoing need for medicines and other medical assistance.

Without medicines, health care institutions lack what the UN Millennium Project calls “the most significant tool that society possesses to prevent, alleviate and cure disease."

On a daily basis AmeriCares Global Medical Assistance program delivers essential tools, which include: prescription and over-the-counter medicines, nutritional supplements, surgical and wound care supplies, hospital supplies, and diagnostics and laboratory supplies.

The Global Medical Assistance program reaches a broad range of institutional beneficiaries through a network of in-country partners. These institutions, located in the United States and 38 countries around the world, include more than 2,000 general and specialty hospitals, outpatient clinics, community health programs, hospice residences, rehabilitation centers and homes for children and the elderly.

Educational Assistance

Scholarship - because of poverty and rising costs of college and university tuition the foundation set this program to strengthen the students financial support in order to successfully complete their studies. Supporting deserving students on their college schooling on their finances and support that they need.

Sponsorship - Financial Assistance for Student Commuters
The Philippine National School For the Blind (PNSB) is a government special school that operates a center –based special education program under the features of a residential-day school plan. The law mandates with visual impairment who are of school age.

Due to acute budgetary constraints, however, it is unfortunate that some students with visual impairment are encountering problems in commuting their way to and from the school in order to avail themselves of the free educational services offered by the government. This is precisely where the problem lies as transportation expenses get doubled considering that these blind students particularly the younger ones, will have to travel with normally seeing guide due to their handicapping condition, otherwise they will not get to school.

School statistics shows that there is an alarming increase in the rate of dropouts and absences of PNSB students every year and poverty identified as the leading and major factor that is responsible for this dilemma. As expected, those on the lower grade levels, constitute the biggest bulk of these school dropout and habitual absentees. Almost always, inadequate transportation budget is the reason given for these school problems and this reason comes about in the face of the sad reality that parents/guardians of these students with visual impairment are either unemployed or underemployed.

The objectives of this program:
1. To minimize the prevalence of school dropout and class absenteeism in PNSB.
2. To help students cope with the present and relatively high rates of transportation fare.
3. To enable students obtain the education they need for their total development.

Project Description
This project shall be in the form of granting financial assistance to the most indigent students who shall be recommended by the school administration to the foundation. The financial assistance shall be used by the recipients for transportation purposes in commuting to and from the school and educational needs.
