Human Appeal
Who we are and what we do
Human Appeal is a non-profit organisation working across the globe to strengthen humanity’s fight against poverty, social injustice and natural disaster. Through the provision of immediate relief and the establishment of self-sustaining development programmes, we aim to invest in real, effective solutions.
We work year-round to establish healthcare, education, and livelihood programmes that pave the way for empowered, self-serving communities. We also provide food, medical aid, and disaster relief during emergencies, a critical intervention that saves lives.
Our skilled local teams are able to access some of the most hard-to-reach places in the world, at their most vulnerable of times.
Our history
Human Appeal was founded in a small flat in Manchester in 1991, and was slowly and diligently built from the ground up. In 2004, we registered as a company limited by guarantee, and we registered with the Charity Commission in 2014.
Since then, we’ve grown from a team of two students to a family of over 173 employees in the UK, 100 staff in our international country offices, and 887 volunteers, all of us united towards a common goal of a kinder, fairer world.
Our vision
To become the global agent of change for a just, caring, and sustainable world.
Our mission
