Helping in the Face of Conflict

Foundation for Progress has met with numerous aid organizations to collaborate with the relief effort for the conflict in Georgia. We have met with local NGO's and have attended coordination meetings hosted by UNHCR, with representatives from all major organizations in attendance.

Foundation for Progress is currently working with larger aid organizations to gather short-term aid supplies to help refugees in need, both in Tbilisi and in the city of Gori (the sight of numerous Russian bombings). The items needed include: food, blankets, dishes, cutlery, pillows, mattresses, and toiletries. To donate items to Georgian refugees please contact Kimberly Cofer at kcofer@foundationforprogress.org.
