Our Mission

• To serve people forcibly displaced by war, persecution and economic deprivation

 

Our Goal

• Shared Humanity USA assists people violently torn from their homes to live in peace and dignity by providing:

  • Urgent and sustained humanitarian aid not provided by other organizations

  • Educational and vocational training programs that assist refugees in Greece to prepare themselves for employment and to build their own businesses

• We also strive to offer volunteers unique opportunities to partner with refugee communities in providing these educational services and support 

​

We believe:

• In the inherent worth and dignity of every person

• In an interconnected world where our actions can have a lasting impact on ourselves and our fellow human beings

• All human beings want to give and receive justice, equality, and compassion

• Distressed communities have the talent, resources, and knowledge to affect positive change and Shared Humanity USA can assist them to remove obstacles to self-determination

• The arc of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice
