Program areas at Good Neighbors USA

Emergency relief. Gnu delivers immediate assistance and sets up long-term relief efforts including dispensing food and clean water, improving sanitation, providing medical assistance and shelter, and preventing or minimizing disease outbreaks. Gnu coordinated the acquisition of food and medicine that were distributed to daycare centers, hospitals, medical offices and clinics as well as to other Good Neighbors project sites. In 2022, gnu worked toward ukraine and crossing borders to support shortages of water, food, fuel, medicines, clothes, personal items, basic services, and shelter items. Gnu also implemented emergency relief to pakistan, which has been severely damaged by the flood.
Child sponsorship. Gnu sponsored 2,715 children ages from 4 to 18 in guatemala, nicaragua, haiti, dominican republic, malawi, chad, niger, and nepal respectively. Gnu's child sponsorship program is designed to combat three critical problems that children in developing countries face: lack of education, poor nutrition, and little to no access to affordable medical care. Child sponsorship program encourages donors to make a monthly commitment that covers a child's tuition, uniform, school supplies, books, lunchtime meals, and medical care. This program not only provides those in need with aid but also combats some of the direct sources of poverty, including illiteracy, poor health, and lack of skills needed for job placement. It's an economically sustainable, community-based solution that invests in children, giving them the right opportunities to one day be productive adults who contribute positively to their society.
Water for life(water and sanitation). To ensure sources to clean water and sanitary living environment for the communities, gnu builds and manages facilities such as wells, water pumps, and ventilated improved pit (vip) latrines. More importantly, gnu strives for the community members to adopt healthy and sanitary behaviors through education and awareness programs. Gnu water for life has changed the health and well-being of an entire community by monitoring its progress and training locals to continue maintaining the well as needed and organizing water sanitation committees to create a sustainable and healthy environment.
Education & other projects. Education project focuses on advocating the rights of a child to access equal education. Gnu enables individuals, especially girls who are less likely to receive standard education, by providing basic literacy skills, such as reading, writing, or numeracy skills that are essential for everyday use. The education project also works to increase school enrollment and retention rates, particularly for girls and other marginalized groups. To ensure access to quality education, gnu educates caregivers of the need for child education, constructs better school. Gnu health program focuses on improving the health statuses and environments for children and community members. These efforts provide integrated support to enhance people's physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being. Gn supported community people with improved access to health services, with a focus on disease prevention activities such as health facilities support, regular health check-up services, and deworming pills distribution. Furthermore, gn's efforts have strengthened food security resilience and improved access to nutrition for people. Gn shelter successfully enrolled 201 clients including women and children for the january-december 2022 period. From this count, the domestic shelter accepted 113 adults and 84 children. Domestic shelter provided extensive case management efforts to secure emergency income, medical assistance, mental health connections, personal identification, covid-19 testing, client incentives, transportation services, legal services, holiday/social event planning and implementation, and housing placement assistance. Good Neighbors la shelter received a number of gik and private donations from community members in the areas of clothing, shoes, toiletries, kitchen utensils, hygiene products, school supplies, hair products, coats, and food. The income generation project supports the establishment and operation of co-operatives to expand opportunities and strengthen capabilities for residents in poverty due to limited resources, information, and low technology. It seeks equal economic growth in the community through initial capital, technical, and business competency support. It helps develop the community by establishing and operating social enterprises that simultaneously create economic and social values. Gnu provides training, resources, and support to help families start small businesses, such as farming or handicrafts, and earn a sustainable income.
