Woodtex Gives Back: KORE FOUNDATION

A LITTLE ABOUT KORE

An earthquake devastates an impoverished nation and millions of dollars of aid pour in as the world responds to crisis. A hungry orphan is given a free meal by a generous organization. But what happens when these donations are exhausted? What happens when that child wakes up hungry again the next day? Could there be a way to eradicate world poverty and hunger? KORE Foundation believes there is.

Not a handout, but a way out.

KORE creates sustainable solutions to extreme poverty in Haiti, focusing on the steps “beyond relief” for the greatest impact. With a holistic approach, KORE is addressing the spiritual, physical and economic needs of the extreme poor.
