Where are the charitable organizations provided by Jehova's Witnesses?

Answer 1

None, however, Jehovah's Witnesss' bible education work has helped countless millions to discontinue destructive or abusive lifestyles that ultimately put a strain on limited health and mental care facilities.

**Professor Elio Masferrer, researcher at the National School of Anthropology & History commented that the Witnesses help people who "suffer severe family crises, such as rape, family abuse, alcohoism, and drug addiction"

Thanks to the Jehovah's Witness programs many individuals have also successfully stopped abusing alcohol, drugs and ceased illegal activities that damage local and national communities such as gang warfare, prostitution and white collar crime.

In many countries Jehovah's Witnesses also run adult literacy classes. The National Office for Adult Literacy (a department of the Ministry of Education) in Burundi, Central Africa for example, formally recognised the the Witnesses' literacy program awarding four of the program's teachers for "the hard work put into teaching others to read." Similar programs are run in other countries such as Brazil and Mozambique.

Jehovah's Witnesses have also been recognised for their humanitarian work. Their charitable association "Aid Afrique" for example has sent food, clothing, and medical supplies to countries such as Congo and more recently Jehovah's Witnesses were amongst the first to provide practical help to the Haitian people following the devastating earthquake in that region.

The relief efforts by Jehovah's Witnesses and their literacy programs are just two examples of the services that Witnesses have been performing around the world for decades.
