Emergency Aid Worldwide
About
Aktion Deutschland Hilft has aid projects worldwide, however the donations for the worldwide emergency aid will be used flexibly, wherever they are needed most. Lesser known catastrophes are especially highlighted and supported. For example, Afghanistan is experiencing a profound humanitarian crisis, exacerbated by economic instability, drought and the consequences of decades of conflict. Our alliance help wherever they can.
Need
Donations for global emergency relief are used where they are needed most. Whether it be in Afghanistan, Syria or Sudan, we help where help is needed, no matter how little media attention there is. As a donor, you trust Aktion Deutschland Hilft to make the right decision with your donation and use it effectively. We promise you, we will do that.
Long term impact
People affected by natural disasters or humanitarian crises have the right to solidarity and help! Together we save lives and give people in need a perspective for a self-determined and free life.
About the Organization
Aktion Deutschland Hilft, Germany's Relief Coalition is a union of German relief organisations that can provide rapid and effective aid in the case of large catastrophes and emergency situations abroad. To further optimise their previously successful work, the participating organisations bring together their many years of experience in humanitarian aid abroad. In exceptional cases, Aktion Deutschland Hilft is also active at home. The idea of integrating their respective knowledge and specific abilities, and through mutual extension to efficiently bundle measures for aid, unites the continued independent initiators of this mutual campaign. Overlapping and gaps in provision can already be avoided in the forefront of aid campaigns in this way. During the acute phase of a catastrophe abroad, Aktion Deutschland Hilft turns to the public with a mutual appeal for funds. Germany's Relief Coalition appeals for funds appear under the account number 102030 at the Bank fur Sozialwirtschaft. The existing administrative structures and capacities of the member organisations help to lower costs and to use directly the highest possible share of the collected donations for aid. Distribution of the donation monies takes place via a key that takes into account the capacity and capacity profile of the respective participating relief organisations. Successful examples for this system that is to be implemented by Germany's Relief Coalition exist in Great Britain and Switzerland. The Disaster Emergency Committee and the Swiss Gluckskette verify that a united approach when confronting large catastrophes eases the work of the helpers.
