Humanity First (HF) has sprung into immediate action and has assembled teams of doctors and other staff volunteers to travel to both China and Myanmar to setup medical camps immediately. These teams consist of volunteers from the UK and several other countries where Humanity First has already been locally established. HF has provided these critical humanitarian services many times in the recent past (the Asian tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, the Pakistan earthquake, Guyanese floods, the Peru earthquake, and Bangladesh cyclone to name a few) and is ready to help victims through immediate disaster relief operations, as well as the subsequent rebuilding phases in
affected communities.
How you can help: As always, supporters like yourself are stepping up and helping in disaster relief efforts through generous donations, and by volunteering for various roles in field operations. Please visit http://www.humanityfirst.org.
Humanity First is registered in 25 countries across 6 continents, and has been working on human development projects and responding to disasters since 1992. These have included the earthquakes in Turkey, Pakistan, Japan and Iran, floods in Africa and Latin America, storms and tsunamis in the USA, Indonesia and Bangladesh, and conflicts in Eastern Europe. Over 93% of donated funds are spent directly on aid projects. With the majority of labor including skilled engineers and clinicians being volunteers along with preferential rates for materials benefiting from global sourcing, Humanity First is often able to deliver a value of aid many times the value of donations provided.
