We support microentrepreneurs in the Pacific Northwest through Mercy Corps Northwest, connect business mentors to startups through MicroMentor, and mobilize youth to fight hunger, poverty and social injustice through Global Citizen Corps.

We've also responded to domestic disasters such as 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina with programs that helped traumatized children heal and affected citizens organize to recover and rebuild.
