Before making a donation to this organization, I checked to see what percent of my dollar would be spent on programs, service and research. Can you believe their overhead is at 8 percent? This was great to know and I will consider donating again in the future.

I stumbled upon HFI's website and after a few phone calls made arrangements to volunteer my time. I was amazed that a small nonprofit would have such a big impact in the health arena. HFI operates a hepatitis hotline and the calls fielded and people helped was inspiring.
