I have been involved with HF since the Earthquake in Pakistan. I have been to the fundraiser diner "Dine for Humanity" in Rancho Cucamonga, CA and saw their efforts in Haiti Earthquake. The good thing i like about this organization is that it works at grassroots level in almost every continent and have various programs in which every volunteer can fit him/herself. They have disaster relief efforts, educational programs, poverty relief programs, safe drinking water programs and many more. I feel honored to be a part of this great organization!

Recently I was invited to attend a Fundraising dinner, called "Dine for Humanity" in Rancho Cucamonga CA. The Humanity First Volunteer, approched me handed me a flyer about the dinner. I had never heard of HF before, and therefore, a little hesitant to donate any money. I decided to google HF, and to my surprise, HF has been involved greatly in humanitarian work. I will attend dinner, and shall see what is different about HF and other NGO.

I've volunteered with several non-profits in the Chicago area in a variety of fundraising support roles. Humanity First amazed me in its capability to organize, advertise and run large scale fundraising events with a very small amount of overhead. Nearly all of the donated funds (something like 92 or 93%) go to either established long-term programs or short-term relief operations. Additionally, the Director of Fundraising has an ability to both identify and execute on great ad hoc communications ideas to increase donations and participation in the major fundraising events such as the national walkathons.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
very professional. Many on the staff came from consulting backgrounds, and they were able to use that experience to plan and run a well organized and effective fundraising event.
