Long term, it supports growth, reduces chronic disease risk, and enhances cognitive function. This leads to better education, economic opportunities, and healthier communities, breaking the cycle of poverty.

A Message of Gratitude
To my fellow humanitarians,
I’m filled with gratitude when I look back on all of the support you helped us deliver in 2024, in Canada alone! This beautiful country is where it all started for Humaniti, only a handful of years ago, and the number of lives we’ve been able to touch is truly humbling.
We delivered hot meals and nutritional support to individuals and families struggling to put food on the table. We showed up for so many heroic single parents with basic necessities, mental health services and care packages that showed them they’re not alone. We provided children and families with special healthcare needs a range of support when they thought all hope was lost. And we empowered young minds with school supplies and educational opportunities to stay in school and feel hopeful for a brighter future full of potential.
None of this would be possible without our local partners working tirelessly to make a difference in the lives of Canadians in need, or through the simple, yet life-changing, efforts made every day by generous donors like you.
Our promise to impact a billion lives isn’t just lip service. We’re determined to make a historic impact on human suffering, and your contributions are essential to our progress towards that goal.
Beyond Canada’s borders, our mission continues to grow. Together, we’ve reached over 465,000 people across Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Lebanon, Palestine, Pakistan, Somalia, and Yemen —providing food, water, shelter, healthcare, livelihoods, and care for orphans. Every one of those lives represents a story of hope restored and dignity renewed.
Thank you again for making our programs in Canada such a success in 2024. We’re already on our way to impacting even more Canadians—and global communities—in 2025.
From the bottom of my heart, I extend my deepest gratitude for your continued support of our mission.
Sincerely,
M. Firaaz Azeez
