SERVICE INTERNATIONAL

Service International (SI) is a non-profit humanitarian organization based in St. Louis, Missouri. Since its establishment in 1985, SI has responded to natural disasters and other crises in the U.S. and abroad by providing reconstruction, on-site management, leadership training, and volunteer workforces... While SI also provides immediate disaster relief, our focus is on complete, long-term recovery. Our primary goal is to make each community we serve capable of continuing its own restoration program long after we have gone. In order to accomplish that task, we train residents and local authorities in volunteer and material coordination as well as reconstruction techniques... Service International exists to reach out with compassion to people in desperate situations all over the world. We work in the U.S. and abroad empowering individuals and communities in crisis to help themselves.
