WHAT IS NEED? \| Magazine Description and Goals \|	NEED Magazine creates exposure for humanitarian aid via an educational, artistic, visual narrative of human stories, both around the world and domestically. This exposure offers an innovative and dynamic approach to building awareness and increasing support for relief organizations and Humanitarian Aid. It is essential to note that NEED Magazine does not have a political agenda.

THE DEPARTMENTS \| What to Expect in Every Issue \| Each issue of NEED contains nine constant departments with a balance between triumph, tragedy and hope	\| ONE \| Many people say “I am only one person, what can I do?” We want to show them. The department “One” will highlight the many things that one person has accomplished. \| HOME \| The “Home” department draws attention to situations revolving around the home, such as: slums, refugee camps, availability of clean water and sanitation, stories of displaced people due to war or natural disasters and the programs that are improving these situations. \| KIDS \| The “Kids” department looks at issues affecting children, such as: child prostitution, street kids, education issues, child soldiers, orphans and the organizations that are helping children to succeed. \| WORK \| “Work” focuses on situations and organizations creating innovative solutions dealing with working life. These include: child labor, sexual slavery, wars effect on work, changes in working life after natural disasters, lack of work, and so on. \| HEALTH \| “Health” focuses on projects that improve the physical well being of individuals in need. \| GENEROSITY \| “Generosity” shares stories of the philanthropic activities of individuals, corporations, non profits and governments as well as the impact that giving has on people receiving aid. These stories will inspire and encourage ongoing support to make lasting change a reality for those in need. \| FUTURE \| “Future” highlights projects that are an investment in the future, including: sustainable development projects, post war or disaster reconstruction, child soldier reintegration programs and so on. \| COOPERATION \| “Cooperation” highlights projects or situations in which multiple parties are working together to solve a problem or create a sustainable solution. \| DIALOGUE \| “Dialogue” documents a conversation with someone associated with Humanitarian issues, such as: an Aid worker in the field, or a high–profile person directly involved in relief efforts.
