Over 130 million people worldwide are currently in crisis, whether due to war or natural disasters, and need humanitarian aid. The purpose of World Humanitarian Day is to raise awareness of the plight of civilians around the world who have become caught up in conflicts and to honor and support the humanitarian workers who risk, and sometimes lose, their lives to help. Among them are ADRA workers and volunteers. This day gives us an opportunity to join hands with them by donating to at least one of the many ADRA projects. With changes in USAID funding, ADRA needs greater support and donations from Adventist members.
