I originally came to Cairo, Egypt as a way to enter Gaza but like everyone else, became stuck there until the borders are open.  I was quickly joined by an international group of volunteers and many local Egyptians as well and we started putting our heads together to see what we could do while we were waiting to get into Gaza. As we started to develop projects and teams and get to work I realized we needed some organization and “The Humanity Project” was born.  We now have a large What’s App Community where we communicate and have groups from 17 countries.

My vision for this collective is simple…. Let it be a place of peace where like minded individuals from around the world gather in community, support each other and implement projects to assist humanity while amplifying the voices of local voices and organizations.  We will operate slowly and methodically with a commitment to doing things the right way and creating a sustainable program which can serve humanity for the “long haul.”  This community has started by being in solidarity with Gaza but recognizes that there are needs all over the world and we want to be prepared to respond to these as we grow in size and capability.

This is the place where you can plug in with us, join us on a trip, connect with us on the ground, support us and finally, a place where you can find ways to be involved in this project from anywhere in the world.  Enter, “The Humanity Project,” a community of regular people who have come together to spread humanity around the globe!

The goal of the Humanity Project is to serve as a Networking and Resource group which identifies local, grassroots initiatives and amplifies their voices and works together to provide resources, volunteers and funding to these organizations.  Every project that we tackle is Palestinian led and advised and we strive to have as much local leadership in place as possible.  We are currently partnered with over 30 different groups from big to small and have formed a family of people who care about restoring Humanity one interaction at a time.

We’ve been delivering Emergency aid to displaced Palestinian families for 6 months and often times this is the first aid they recieve when they get to Egypt.  With the influx and numbers growing everyday we are desperate to restock our supply.  We need to order 6,000 more of these items immediately to keep up with those in need.  Sponsor a bag. or a box, or as many as you can and we will deliver these directly to a displaced Palestinian family in need!
