Helping Others Today (HOT) is a not-for-profit initiative established by Bernard Loeffke and his children, Marc and Kristin.
HOT is a grass-roots effort, and seeks to achieve world peace using medicinal and educational engagement strategies.
Our latest initiative is called "Teach One Child". We believe that a single child, when taught to teach, can have a global impact. This process begins with his family, then the local school and community, and eventually his country and the world.

Across the globe, HOT has or currently supports a variety of projects, including:
- An orphanage in Guatemala
- A reconciliation camp in Ireland
- An AIDS clinic in Kenya
- A free clinic in Haiti
- A school in a refugee camp in Sudan
- A day care center in Kosovo
- Aiding low income children in the Third World
- Educating nurses in Niger
- Teaching English in Anshang, China
This website is our organization's attempt to strengthen and disseminate peace through personal relations. Monies for initiatives are generated from the sale of books, lectures, and seminars.
