Our mission is to empower Asia's affected people to lift themselves out of poverty with dignity through access to financial services and to information.
Help Asia Organization is a young, dynamic, global organization that combines microfinance, new technologies, and innovative thinking to empower Asia's affected people to escape poverty and diseases. Help Asia Organization has established a global network of 46 partners in 20 countries and has impacted an estimated 2.5 million lives in Asia, Africa, the Americas, and the Middle East.
It is basic policy at Help Asia Organization to employ local personnel. Please note that we cannot organise foreign placements for practicals because that would deprive local personnel of work. Very rare exceptions are only made for native foreign language teachers.
We take action for children as an independent non-governmental social development organisation. We respect varying religions and cultures, and we work in countries and communities where our mission can contribute to development. We work in the spirit of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and we promote these rights around the world.
Help Asia is committed to the development of sustainable forward-looking social structures supportive of children and families in need throughout the world. In this context the organisation co-operates at the national and international levels with NGOs, governments, corporations and other organisations.
