Lutheran World Relief (LWR)
LWR is a non-governmental organization founded in 1945 to respond to the needs of communities devastated by World War II. Since then it has evolved into an agency that works with partners worldwide to respond to emergencies, seek lasting solutions to rural poverty, and work for peace and justice for all.
