Aid Kosovar Refugees

Empower the Poor

Balkan Sunflowers

Balkan Sunflowers is an international grassroots organization founded in 1999 to aid the Kosovar refugees. Volunteers from around the world saw the TV images of the war and refugee emergency. They wanted to help in ways that money could not. They believed that person-to-person contact with aid workers who came to work as friends and neighbors, might help restore community life in ways that emergency aid and political support alone could not. Balkan Sunflowers provided more than 100,000 hot meals to children participating in their Learning Centers Network program in 2009.
