Our Mission Humanity First is an international charitable trust established to promote and safeguard the preservation of human life and dignity. It is a non-political, non-sectarian, non-religious international relief and development agency that works with the world's poorest and most vulnerable people. Most aid workers and the management of Humanity First are unpaid volunteers and our administrative expenses are negligible. We are able to deliver significantly more aid value in the field to the funds we raise because our labour costs are very low.
