About us
Khalsa Aid
Khalsa Aid International is an international NGO providing humanitarian aid in disaster areas and civil conflict zones around the world.
Since 1999, the organization has provided crucial aid to millions of people, including victims of the Yemen Civil War to refugees landing on the shores of Greece from the Middle East and, more recently, the Khalsa Aid deployed a team to Cairo, Egypt, to provide urgent assistance to the people of Gaza. Khalsa Aid International volunteers have provided support for earthquake, flood, tornado and hurricane-stricken areas in India, Nepal, England, Canada, USA, Australia, and the Caribbean. The organization funds and builds semi- permanent shelters, if needed, and anything else that is required in the early days of a crisis to save lives, reduce people’s immediate suffering and help maintain their dignity.
