Welthungerhilfe provides help from one set of hands: from immediate emergency aid in the wake of a disaster to long-term projects carried out in cooperation with local partners. Welthungerhilfe is a private, non-profit-making, politically independent and non-denominational relief organization which works under a voluntary Board of Directors and the patronage of the German President. It has supported some 5,500 projects in over 70 countries with 1.9 billion Euros since its foundation in 1962. Taking advantage of the versatility of TYPO3 its website successfully combines information and services in a user-friendly structure.
