Rebuilding lives in Morocco

The purchasing of donkeys has begun!

Months after the devastating earthquake, survivors in these mountain villages are doing the slow work of rebuilding. Many families have suffered greatly, losing loved ones, their homes, and their livelihoods. Millennium Partners have started a project to replace lost animals that were crucial to a family's transportation or business.

Giving the gift of life: newborn resuscitation

Resuscitation training is critical for physicians and nurses in neonatal units, as well as for teams working in the delivery rooms. A simulation training program has begun to meet this urgent need at a Mongolian hospital, with a proposal to expand to other specialists working with mothers and newborns. Your gift will help to purchase the medical equipment needed for training.

Millennium Partner, Ilk Umut Dernegi, is working to bring some normal back to children's lives in Turkey, one year after the earthquakes. There is a great need for safe and fun places for children to play and the work has begun to install playgrounds in container cities.

Morocco Earthquake Response - September 2023

Our Origins

In 1991, Kurds began to return back to the northern region of Iraq following the repressed rebellion after the gulf war. That same year, William (Bill) Koops moved to Iraq to work with the Kurds who were in refugee camps under UN and Allied protection. In 1997, seven thousand Kurds were evacuated to the US and many came to Houston. Koops returned to Houston at that time to help them settle into a new country.

It was then that Bill met James Clark, a lawyer specializing in international law and finance. The two built a relationship and together they co-founded an organization that enables field workers to provide long-term development assistance to the poor. Bill Koops still serves as President and James Clark as COO and Chairman, and since its creation in 1998, Millennium has worked in over 40 countries.
