Protection of cultural heritage and diversity
The Humanity Funds works closely with local artists of diverse backgrounds to enable community driven involvement of the most vulnerable: women and children.
These projects often involve interactive events at hospitals or other public spaces, sometimes broadcasted to international donor hosted events for fundraising. Current projects include painting of walls in children’s hospitals as well as the production of a 250-year-old Ukranian opera composed originally by Dmitry Bortnyansky to protect its Ukrainian heritage for generations to come.

In Focus: Mental and physical health of Ukraine’s women
With Ukraine facing its third winter in war times and increased Russian attacks on essential facilities and other civilian targets, women’s mental and physical health needs to be front and center.
Without appropriate healthcare and support for their children, Ukraine’s women increasingly struggle to go to work, feed their families and master the challenges that this war brings to their lives every day.
Addressing essential infrastructure
The Humanity Funds continues to provide ecoflows and generators for individuals, families, neighborhoods and public institutions (including schools and hospitals) as well as internet capability and hardware.
Cold temperatures and destruction of essential facilities provide a particular challenge for families and children as well as for educational and medical facilities. The Humanity Funds works directly with locals and local authorities to ensure efficient distribution to where it’s needed most.
Afghanistan’s women and girls. Nurse and midwifery education
In 2024, The Humanity Funds issued six scholarships for two-year programs at privately run medical institutes in Afghanistan, consisting of theoretical and practical education for nurses and midwives.
These professions are acceptable for women in Afghan society and the impact on communities is profound and immediate. The Humanity Funds continues to support these smaller projects.
Addressing emergent needs
In conflict zones, urgent issues frequently arise that demand immediate and prioritized action.
Based on local stakeholder feedback, The Humanity Funds has been able to use its global business and non-profit network to provide humanitarian services and goods within a matter of days.
Trauma care for children
The Humanity Funds provides children with support and training led by psychologists.
The Humanity Funds has worked with the Ukrainian non-profit organizations Voices of Children, Save Ukraine and the Human Rights Department of Ukraine’s National Police to provide children with support and training led by psychologists in individual and group sessions to address anxiety, depression, and other serious mental health issues.
Rescuing Ukrainian children from Russia and the occupied areas
The Humanity Funds works closely with the Ukrainian non-profit organization “Save Ukraine” to support the rescue of children and their families, restore their lives and rebuild their homes.
This includes the production of a documentary (our Spotlight Initiative) as well as direct funding and partnering with Save Ukraine to apply for grants. Save Ukraine is the main NGO that regularly organizes rescue missions to return abducted children from Russia.
Support of hospitals in Ukraine
Since its inception The Humanity Funds has focused on children’s and women’s health supporting various hospitals and smaller projects.
In May of 2024 The Humanity Funds kicked off additional support for Ohmatdyt, Ukraine’s largest children hospital located in the center of Kyiv, by hosting a Benefit Concert at Seattle’s Benaroya Hall. Funded projects include repair, upgrade and modernization of existing rooms as well as delivery of urgently needed medical items like breathing tubes for the prematurely born babies.
