Dignity Aid International is a new NGO (non-governmental organization) dedicated to providing humanitarian aid with maximum dignity at minimum cost. We operate on the principle of equality for every recipient of aid and for every volunteer, employee, and partner. We strive to provide aid using volunteer labor wherever possible to maximize the effect of our many small private donors. And we seek to respond to the most difficult challenges facing humanity with dignity and kindness.
Create connections between local organizations
Bring together volunteers from around the world
We are continually looking to respond to humanity’s most difficult problems.
Involved in the Ukraine emergency response since the first days of the full-scale invasion, The Merch Republic founder Karsten Fuhrken has contributed enormously to relief efforts in the country. The company is currently collaborating with Dignity Aid International to supply a humanitarian center in the village of Muzykivka, just outside of Kherson, Ukraine.
We are looking for volunteers in the Ukraine Odesa region.
Every dollar counts. We do our best to ensure that every donation goes 100% to direct humanitarian aid to recipients, whether food, hygiene items, or information on where to find medical help or other basic necessities.
