GLOBAL HUMANITARIAN AID & SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
2572 Ceveland Ave
Columbus , Ohio 43211
As a global humanitarian organization, we take decisive action against
the causes and effects of hunger in our homeland of Somalia and here in
Ohio, where we are headquartered. We improve the lives of
malnourished children by providing meals and nutrition education in low-
income communities where the need is greatest.
We run meal programs for refugees/immigrants affected by COVID-19 in
the greater Columbus area through in-person, but socially-distanced,
events to ensure children in need receive food assistance.
The Columbus area is the second-largest home to Somali immigrants in the USA. Because our
organization is founded and led by people from Somalia, we are in an ideal and unique position
to be the primary source of assistance and leadership to this important part of the community.
It is through our partnerships with companies like Bank of America that we are able to ensure our
positive impact lasts for years to come. In addition,
-Food insecurity: misses one or more meals a day
-Shelter insecurity: at risk for losing one or more essential utilities for inability to pay: electric,
gas/heat, or water
-Educational Challenges: risk of not graduating from high school due to limited access to
necessary infrastructure (computer, wifi, transportation) and/or need to work to help family
meet basic financial needs.
