About us

FOOD for the hungry,
HOME for the homeless,
CHANCE for the disadvantaged!

The Hungarian Interchurch Aid, founded in 1991, is one of the largest, internationally recognized charity organizations in Hungary. The founding churches grew into a community of professionals, volunteers, donors and responsible corporate partners to help the needy and people in trouble.
HIA provides assistance to those in need in Hungary, in the Carpathian Basin and in many countries around the world regardless of nationality, religion or world view, meeting the highest professional and transparency requirements.

Our mission
