Direct aid

Direct aid refers to financial, material, or humanitarian assistance provided directly to individuals or communities in need, usually from governments, international organizations, or non-governmental organizations (NGOs). This aid aims to address immediate needs, such as food, shelter, healthcare, or education, especially in crisis situations like natural disasters or conflicts. Unlike indirect aid, which supports projects or programs, direct aid focuses on delivering resources straight to those affected, ensuring they receive necessary help efficiently and urgently, often enhancing their quality of life and promoting recovery.
