Our Strategy
So Why Did We Change Our Name?
Like many charities that have changed their names in the past, we chose to change our acronym NOW (Needy, Orphans and Widow) to ensure our name and brand, provided the best reflection of our work today. In the areas where the NOW Foundation first worked, there were a great number of orphaned children and widowed spouses suffering and in dire need of aid. When we began our humanitarian work, these two groups were most prominent in our humanitarian relief work. However, our vision has always been a wider and more extensive one than working with widowed women and orphaned children alone. Today, we want to ensure that our sponsors and supporters know, that we help and support everybody in crisis regardless of their age, gender or background.
The Meaning Of Now Today:
We wanted to keep our new name as similar as possible to our previous name so that our supporters and beneficiaries would continue to easily identify with our brand. The NOW in NOW Foundation is a standalone word and not an acronym. Therefore we have adapted our previous name to highlight the benefit and meaning behind our work. For us, NOW signifies the need to act immediately and have the ability to respond quickly by putting agents on the ground, focused on where the charity’s work is most needed. Very often we are responding to areas affected by disaster and extreme poverty, where essential and life-saving intervention is needed NOW and without any delay. This is why the NOW in NOW Foundation is capitalized, to emphasize the sense of urgency that we have, in reaching people NOW, who are in the most need of our aid.
