World Aid Fostering Education and Agriculture was formed by a group of people that are originally from developing countries. Many of these people lives were affected by wars and poverty. Some of our members have been on the receiving end of aids. They have lived in refugee camps, received food supplies and some lived in orphanage homes. These people truly understand from personal experiences what it takes to become self-reliant. Many of our members have been fortunate to travel to different parts of the world and want to use their experiences to help improve lives of other people and educate them to become self-reliant.
