THE ORDER OF ST.GEORGE
The Order of St George is an international association of men and women who pursue and uphold the timeless virtues of chivalry, seeking to serve humanity through compassion and good works.
Saint George is the patron saint both of soldiers and of many countries and communities around the world, particularly in the Middle East. True to this heritage, we focus our work on supporting vulnerable communities in the Middle East and Africa, and in the welfare of NATO and Commonwealth armed forces personnel and veterans.
HOW WE HELP
We work with partner organizations to deliver medical and humanitarian aid to vulnerable communities, support past and present servicemen and women, and provide educational resources to schools and colleges.
A direct appeal from St. George's Church, Baghdad resulted in the Order of St George providing an ophthalmoscope for the Eye Clinic in Baghdad.
Everything from toothbrushes for schoolchildren to Automated External Defibrillators were among a $40,000 package of medical aid to Jolo, in the Philippines.
As part of our COVID-19 response, we have been working with the Red Cross to send face coverings to Serbia.
We're a Platinum Member of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, helping with volunteer support to this historical veterans' residence.
We have sent over $2 million worth of medical and healthcare supplies to projects in the Caribbean, Africa and Asia.
As part of our support to Samara’s Aid Appeal, the Order has delivered Dignity Bags containing women’s toiletries and other essential items for use by female refugees in Syria.
