From Buddhist Global Relief (BGR):

Buddhist Global Relief (BGR) is an inter-denominational community of Buddhists and friends of Buddhism who seek to give concrete expression to the Buddha’s great compassion as an ongoing project in the contemporary world. BGR addresses the plight of people worldwide afflicted by poverty, natural disaster, and societal neglect. It aspires to directly participate in the Buddha’s mission of liberating beings from suffering by addressing the most immediate causes of their distress and providing for their well-being and happiness. Inspired by a sense of humane responsibility and commitment to social justice, its members seek to improve the lives of the men, women, and children that they serve, enabling them to lead fruitful lives of dignity, hope, and meaning.
“If people knew as I know the results of giving and sharing,
they would not eat without having given nor would
the stain of miserliness persist in overpowering their minds.
Even if they were down to their last bit of food, they would not eat without having shared it, if those to receive it were present.”
- Itivuttaka 26
