"The Road Home is a private nonprofit social service agency that assists individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Salt Lake County and along the Wasatch Front. Our mission is to help people step out of homelessness and back into our community.

Originally established in 1923 to assist stranded travelers, the Road Home has grown to address a spectrum of needs that people experiencing homelessness encounter as they work to restore their lives. In addition to operating the largest shelter in Utah, the Road Home has developed a comprehensive housing program that helps people move into housing as quickly as possible. -- The Road Home Website

"Only 700 miles off the coast of Florida, Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere and the third hungriest country in the world. 80% of the population lives below the level of absolute poverty. One out of 8 children will not live to see their 5th birthday." --His Hands for Haiti Website

"Because of the extreme poverty in Haiti, and because there is no "free" education, most parents cannot afford to send their children to school. His Hands for Haiti has helped to establish a sponsorship program through which you can sponsor a child in Haiti to help them attend school. $40.00 (US) TWICE per school YEAR (September through June), will provide them with a uniform, an education as well as a hot meal at school (in the schools that prepare a noon meal). The opportunity to attend school is life-changing for these children. In some cases, the help the children receive at the school has saved their lives!" --His Hands for Haiti Website

We believe that nurturing and caring for children are the cornerstones of human progress. UNICEF was created with this purpose in mind – to work with others to overcome the obstacles that poverty, violence, disease and discrimination place in a child’s path. We believe that we can, together, advance the cause of humanity.

We advocate for measures to give children the best start in life, because proper care at the youngest age forms the strongest foundation for a person’s future.

We promote girls’ education – ensuring that they complete primary education as a minimum – because it benefits all children, both girls and boys. Girls who are educated grow up to become better thinkers, better citizens, and better parents to their own children.

We act so that all children are immunized against common childhood diseases, and are well nourished, because it is wrong for a child to suffer or die from a preventable illness.-- unicef Website

"Latter-day Saint Charities (Humanitarian Services) helps families become self-reliant by promoting health and disease prevention where health care resources and education are lacking, by helping with employment and job training, and by responding to urgent needs brought on by natural disasters.

When a disaster occurs, Latter-day Saint Charities sends food, clothing, medical supplies, and other emergency relief assistance to help victims with urgent needs. Advance planning, extensive storage of essential items, and an extensive worldwide network of volunteers, allow a swift response when disaster strikes. These volunteers, working cooperatively with other relief agencies, help ensure that 100 percent of all donations are distributed directly to those in need.

In developing nations, where poverty and poor living conditions place a great burden on families, disease can be devastating economically and emotionally as well as physically. When proper medical facilities are lacking, diseases that are preventable and treatable can result in death. Families who practice simple health and sanitation methods can avoid many diseases and unnecessary suffering.
