The New World Villages Mission
New World Villages is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, founded in September 2004. Their mission is to provide a hand up to the poorest of the poor by helping to increase their educational level, health, and human dignity. More than ninety five percent of all donations go directly to the projects they target.
William E. Wockner's Impact
With funding provided by the William E. Wockner Foundation, New World Villages is working on a project to provide a multipurpose hall to be used to ensure a safe environment for quality educational activities for all sectors of society. In addition, this hall will house social and cultural activities, provide emergency shelter for the village community, a study hall for students, and a daycare center for preschool learning. The grand opening was March 1st, and there are healthcare training sessions scheduled as well as youth summer educational/music camps and student exam study hours.
