How do you decide who to help?
As much as we would like to help everyone, we are constrained by the realities of our budget and have to make difficult decisions. Our board collects information we feel is relevant to the situation and we vote. We try to help those in most dire need of assistance.

Do you share the information about who you've helped?
No! We are not in the business of patting ourselves on the back for helping people in need. We highly value people's right to anonymity and as a gesture of respect, we keep all their information private. Only with explicit permission would we ever divulge the anonymous details of any specific case.
