Non-profit of the Month

At World Help Link, we believe in the spirit of giving. That the more you give, whether it's a donation of your time or money, the more you receive. We understand that not everyone can take the time to give by helping abroad, which is why we also have our Non-Profit of the Month feature.

 

Every month we showcase a non-profit that needs your help! It's sometimes hard to find the right place to donate to, so we make it easier for you by providing a non-profit that needs funds or publicity.
