World Humanitarian Day Open House: Practical Tools to Help Others

What if the ability to help others—effectively, confidently and immediately—was a skill anyone could learn?

This World Humanitarian Day, you are invited to a special Open House at the Founding Church of Scientology of Washington, DC, highlighting practical tools that have been used around the world to assist individuals, families and communities in times of crisis and everyday challenges alike.
