HWH MISSION STATEMENT

HWH MISSION STATEMENT

 Home is Where the Heart is (HWH) was originally started in early 2011 with a mission to re-empower displaced people around the world. Since then it has gone on to focus on the Bhutanese Refugee Community living a dreadful life within Refugee Camps in Jhapa district, Nepal. HWH completed its first visit to the camps in September 2011. We met with many individuals and camp authorities as we tried to assess what impact our organisation could have within the refugee community.

Being a very small charitable organisation, we are limited by the funds we have available and this influences the type of projects we are able to work on. We try and choose projects that will have a big positive emotional impact on the refugee community, we look for ripples that can filter out into the refugee community as a whole. There are many scientific reports suggesting that projecting good feelings onto people, not only improves their emotional mind set but also improves the general health and well being of previously hopeless people. With random acts of kindness we try and change the influence in peoples lives.
