About us: OIWW is a non-governmental organization associated with the
U.N. Department of Public Information and a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit

International's current project in Haiti, where we are struggling to
provide money for food, clean water, new clothes, shoes, vitamins and
protein supplements following recent flooding and wind damage from
hurricanes Gustav, Hannah and Ike. Inflation is skyrocketing, and basic
food is in very short supply.
