Dave, can you tell us what "efforts in Bosnia and Kosovo" the "White House" "recognized" from Mercy-USA? Far as I know, that was Umar al-Qadi's Mercy International in Bosnia and Kosovo. And a far as I know, Umar al-Qadi, the president of Mercy International, is also the president of Mercy-USA. What am I missing?
Mercy-USA receives grant funding from US government agencies like the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and from United Nations agencies like the United Nations Childrens Fund (UNICEF), the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK), the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Food Programme (WFP). The White House has recognized the organization's efforts in Bosnia and Kosovo.
