The organization has managed to provide some services which include offering professional counseling services as well as temporary housings for the victims. Other services which are offered will be children's program which will cater to the children's needs while living in the temporary shelters. The primary mission can be seen in the name of the organization which is to offer a haven to the victims who have undergone these great misfortunes in their lives. My possible volunteer role in the organization would be a counselor. The knowledge gained in philosophy will help in inspiring the victims into living meaningful lives despite the misfortune that they have undergone. Furthermore, my philosophical counseling will help the victims in resolving their life problems through the use of rational methods (Chandek, 2000).
