We are a group with extensive governmental, private sector and international non-profit experience. We established The Humanity Funds (THF) in the Spring of 2022 and received US Government 501c3 registered charity status in June of that year. Our guiding principle is to research critical needs in our target countries and to work through local partners to implement and monitor projects to meet these needs. By going local we not only achieve immediate impact but also build the long-term capabilities of our local partners. We select our programs carefully. Our partners range from small grassroot organizations to large governmental organizations. Our projects are designed to address a wide range of needs to include critical infrastructure, education, humanitarian relief and longer term strategic projects designed to build lasting local capabilities. Our overarching goal is to bring about measurable and lasting, positive impact.

501(c)(3) charity; gifts are tax-deductible.
97¢ of each $1 spent went to programs.
Run by 5 volunteers.

Names, privacy, and removal requests More

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
