At Sempo, there’s a simple, but radical idea that we find particularly inspiring: one of the best ways to help vulnerable communities is to just give them money, no strings attached. Cash transfers bring dignity to affected people and solve a fundamental problem with humanitarian relief - too often, we spend millions of dollars on the wrong kind of aid. In Iraq, 70% of Syrian refugees have sold the aid they were given in order to buy what they actually need. We're on a mission to help all aid organizations, from grassroots to international, to increase their usage of cash transfers as a tool to alleviate suffering, provide dignity, and ultimately increase long-term self-sufficiency.
