The Caritas Corporation
The Caritas Corporation is a nonprofit organization whose goal is to provide and maintain quality, affordable housing through the acquisition of mobile home parks, acquisition of apartment buildings and the development of affordable housing communities. With the increasing number of households on fixed or limited incomes and with the scarcity of reliable, long-term, reasonably priced housing, caritas endeavors to create vibrant communities where quality of life, resident involvement, and caring are priorities.

World Conference of Religions for Peace Inc
New York, NY
Religions for peace (RFP) advances common action among the world's religious communities for peace. Multi-religious cooperation for peace and shared well-being is the hallmark of RFP. This cooperation includes but also goes beyond dialogue and bears fruit in common concrete action. Through RFP, diverse religious communities discern "deeply held and widely shared" moral concerns, such as violent conflict; gender inequality; environmental degradation; threats to the freedom of thought, conscience and religion; lack of interreligious understanding; and the shrinking space for civil society and multilateralism. RFP translates these shared concerns into concrete multi-religious action.
