What We Do
To help those in need with love and care: We’re all one family on this Earth.
Tzu Chi is an international humanitarian aid organization whose mission is to relieve the suffering of those in need, and create a better world for all. In Chinese, “tzu” means compassion, and “chi” relief: With open hearts and helping hands, our volunteers are here to serve you. Its “Four Great Missions” are Charity, Medical, Education, and Humanistic Culture. Moreover, Tzu Chi is also devoted to international disaster relief, bone marrow donation, environmental protection, and community volunteering. Together, these are called the “Eight Global Footprints.”
