INDEPENDENT MESSENGERS OF HUMANITY (IMOH),

Is a project that uses technology efficiently and at a large scale to serve humanitarian and social needs.

It’s a revolutionary approach that takes humanitarian aid to another level… that of caring individuals and communities, by connecting someone in need of support with another who genuine desires to help, directly.

1.  About “IMOH”:

The project includes a website and a social application for smartphones, and aims at:

Positively influencing people’s attitude towards humanitarian and social work, as well as bringing together those in need with people who are willing to help, automatically, using advanced technology. 

Results:

• Improvement of the situation of people in need.

• Support of the personal development of individuals.

• Enhancement of solidarity between different social and age groups, as a result of supporting one another.

• Direct assistance of individuals, without relying on traditional sources of funding.

• Customized response to specific needs.

• Increased credibility and trust between individuals through transparency.

2.  Smartphone Social Application:

A social network that includes all social and age groups, in order to connect people in need of support with those with a genuine desire to be of service to others, in an automatic manner, depending on the type of the need and the geographic location.

People in need can express their needs and describe their suffering. Those who would like to help can respond to those needs either directly or through one of our reliable and experienced partners in the field. (Carefully selected NGOs according to specific criteria)

In addition to the exchange of services, each member has a profile that can be personalized, as well as a feature that allows them to communicate with others. Users can also have consultations with one another based on their needs and area of expertise. An assessment feature also exists allowing users to rate their experience with one another.

3.  The Website is a platform that constitutes:

• Publishing humanitarian and social cases with high credibility and in a positive manner.

• Publishing articles and reports related to humanitarian and social work, in order to raise awareness on the important issues and encourage direct communication between those who need support and those who would like to be of service to others. 

• Keeping the readers and members up-to-date on latest developments of interest to them. 

Note: content is sorted and published based on geographical location and subject.
