The objective of this work is to: (1) substantiate a “Holocaust by Bullets,” in addition to those Jews murdered in Nazi concentration camps, (2) give proper respect to the victims’ burial places by identifying their locations, (3) provide evidence of such mass executions to answer the Holocaust deniers of today and tomorrow, and (4) apply the lessons learned to combat contemporary anti-Semitism and genocidal violence.

World Bicycle Relief’s mission is to provide people in need with access to independence and livelihood through The Power of Bicycles. People in developing nations suffer every day due to lack of transportation: without access to education and economic opportunity, people live in poverty; without access to healthcare, people die of preventable diseases and minor injuries. Bicycles are a simple, sustainable way to bridge the transportation gap between needs and resources. Compared to walking, the only transporation available to many people in developing countries, bicycles represent an enormous leap in productivity and access to healthcare, education and economic development opportunities. We accomplish our mission by designing, sourcing and manufacturing bicycles designed to withstand African terrain and conditions while meeting the needs of students, healthcare workers, farmers and entrepreneurs. We encourage local economies and promote long-term sustainability by locally assembling bicycles, training mechanics, strengthening the spare parts supply chain, and providing high-quality, affordable bicycles to people in need of transportation.

Books for Development addresses the book famine that prevents children and adults in many developing countries from learning to read. We do this by building library collections since we believe that the best contribution you can make to people’s development is to promote their literacy. As a non-profit, we take donated books, use volunteers to sort them and then ship them to poor countries to create libraries. We leverage our efforts--using free labor and donated books that might otherwise be dumped in a land fill. Books for Development was formerly known as Good Steward Global Initiative.
Access to health care and quality education are necessary means to alleviate the burdens of poverty. The primary focus of Equal As One is to provide initial assistance to poverty-stricken communities to setup healthcare centers and schools, then help these communities organize to sustain these institutions themselves. Equal As One embraces interdependence as a fundamental philosophy of life; no matter how absolute, separate or self-sufficient, people or aspects of life may seem, everything and everyone depends on something else. This philosophy inspires us to view every human being as equal, and as kin. They need each other. This will be the philosophy they hope to promote as we bring community members together to build sustainable and enduring institutions that add value to their lives.
