Stories of devastation and tragedy surface every day in the news—violence in the Middle East; tornadoes in Oklahoma, USA; volcanoes in the Philippines; political unrest in Fiji. Every country is touched by disaster from time to time, and our hearts go out to the people who suffer as a result.

When disasters directly impact individual Quota members, surrounding clubs and districts issue a call for assistance and support. How can Quota members make a difference in Quota's name when disaster strikes farther away from home?

Share your blessings with the We Share Foundation. The Foundation operates the Club-to-Club World Service Program where every dollar donated reaches its intended service project. Club-to-Club projects offer assistance to people in dire need in the Philippines, Suriname, India, and Fiji during times of political strife, economic crises, natural disasters, and more. Your donation will help the We Share Foundation operate and expand this worthy program to new communities in need. For more information on how to donate to the We Share Foundation, click here.

When a disaster strikes that affects people who are not involved in Quota International, we encourage you to donate in Quota's name to an organization that provides international disaster relief assistance. While Quota International is not affiliated with and does not endorse any particular organization, we can offer the following suggestions of non-profit organizations with well-known programs of international relief assistance:
