How We Help Global Humanitarian Programmes

As part of Scientology’s mission to help create a better world, we support a number of global humanitarian initiatives and social betterment programmes.

The result is a growing movement that includes a worldwide network of over 1.5 million volunteers creating positive change in nearly 200 nations.

Together with our partners throughout the world, we are combating illiteracy, teaching the truth about drugs, promoting human rights, providing a path to a moral society and delivering relief in times of need.

Each of our programmes is founded on the proposition that education is the cornerstone of change. As a result, the Church employs its international facilities to make programme educational materials available at no cost to those working to build a better world.
