Humanitarian Service
In response to natural disasters, UPF provides donations and volunteers to help with immediate relief and longer-term cleanup. After the tsunami in Japan, youth cleaned debris from homes. When Thailand was struck by floods, volunteers brought food and water to stranded survivors and cleaned an Islamic school. Other recent projects aided people in Haiti, Pakistan, and India.
Religious Youth Service
Experiential learning programs bring together youth from different cultures and religions in order to promote mutual understanding and respect. Participants serve a community in need, visit religious and historic sites, and learn communication and team-building skills.
Sports for Peace
Young people from diverse backgrounds compete as teams in popular sports such as football. Coaches focus on respect and sportsmanship to promote personal development and community cohesion.
