Humanity Work

Our Partners

Humanity Work built and cultivates a network of valued partners, initiating cooperation over shared values.

Lebanon Emergency Appeal (LEA) is an NGO that aims to highlight critical areas of humanitarian intervention to protect the lives of people in Lebanon who are most acutely at risk due to the COVID-19 outbreak in the country, the economic crisis, and their immediate socio-economic impact.
Humanity Work and the humanity organization’s team is packing and sending boxes of food for people in need in Lebanon through the non-profit group LEA. It tackles hunger and poverty and provides food and necessities to those in need.

Humanity Work assists Shelter Partnership in Los Angeles by donating non-food-related items for the homeless. That includes clothing, blankets, and personal hygiene products.
The nonprofit was formed in 1985 to help develop housing and resources for the homeless and collectively solve homelessness. It designs programs, handles resource development and supports agencies and local governments that serve the homeless.
The group operates the S. Mark Taper Foundation Shelter Resource Bank in which it solicits large-scale donations of merchandise and makes sure they’re delivered to people and agencies that need them the most. It provides technical assistance to community-based organizations and public agencies by helping them receive more than $1 billion in federal funds. It conducts research and publishes analytical studies to help with public policy and promotes community education.
There’s a network of more than 273 non-profit agencies that serve the homeless in Los Angeles County. It’s current focus has been on providing supplies like emergency blankets, diapers and socks to its network in addition to hygiene products like soap, toothpaste and toothbrushes, deodorant, and shampoo.

Humanity Work is supporting the United Way of Greater Los Angeles and its education campaigns.
The United Way’s goal is to end homelessness and poverty in Los Angeles County, and it starts with fighting the root causes by preparing students for high school graduation, college, and the workforce. It guides families to move up the economic ladder.
The United Way’s mantra is that success in life begins with a quality education. That’s made much harder with millions of children lacking the support they need to build on their literacy, stay on track in school and graduate high school before they can go on to college or start a career.
United Way says half of the 100,000 students in L.A. County that graduate every year aren’t prepared with the grades or courses to get into college.
United Way led district policy changes that prompted an 11% increase in students meeting admissions requirements to California public colleges and universities since 2011. There’s been a 7% increase in graduations since 2011.

Humanity Work continues to support the Global Compact Network Lebanon, known as GCNL. It’s one of 68 networks around the world working with the United Nations Global Compact, while being independent and self-managed.
Launched in 2015, it advances the UN Global Compact Initiative, its Ten Principles and the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals for a better world by 2030. GCNL does this throughout the Lebanese business and non-business community.
Those goals include ending poverty; ending hunger; good health and well being; quality education; gender equality; clean water and sanitation; affordable and clean energy; decent work and economic growth; industry, innovation and infrastructure; reduced inequalities; sustainable cities and communities; responsible production and consumption; climate action; life below water; life on land; peace, justice and strong institutions; and partnerships for the goals.
The founder of Humanity Work, Dr. Tahani Saker, is an ambassador for GCNL which works with companies to build a strong understanding of responsible business and put their sustainability commitments into action. GCNL facilitates local connections with other businesses and stakeholders from nonprofits, government and academia.
