An Idea Institutionalized

Humanitarian Day ℠ is an intentional unselfish response to help those unemployed and unsheltered. It is a call for collective sharing so people can breathe beyond the unwelcoming grip of accumulated poverty. Humanitarian Day (HDAY) gives hope, awareness and a sense of social responsibility. It gives an outlet to practice life’s universal principles to support people when life becomes overwhelming.

The community has transformed a sixteen year old idea into an institution. Youth volunteers receive service learning experience from their parents who volunteered at HDAY fifteen years ago. The resilience of those served symbolize a rich gratefulness. The effort is year-round, fulfilling its original aim to "Convert one Day into a Life Mission". It has been hosted in over 27 US cites ,10 international sites, and established roots in Ghana and Indonesia.

The 2014 HDAY Report will highlight the impact from your collective contributions. Our Coalition to Preserve Human Dignity (CPHD) network represents an enabling force that allows thousands people to be served year after year, now reaching nearly 70,000. It is with great pleasure we present this report and look forward to receiving suggestions and continued support.

HUMANTARIAN DAY INTERFAITH IMPACT “ Humanitarian Day℠ is unlike any

other day in the world to give. Not only to give from a Christian

perspective but to give with my Muslim brothers, Jews, Latter Day

Saints and others. “ Rev. Doug Nelson,

CEO Levitical Network

It was the second of a two-part community service project intended to show the kids what they have in common. They had first come together on March 28, to work with the ILM Foundation, a Muslim nonprofit committed to ending hunger. That day, the group distributed tuna and peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches to the homeless on downtown Los Angeles’ Skid Row. The Skid Row work resonated twofold for July Aye, a Muslim member of the project and a junior at Torrance High School. Aye described the experience as “eye-opening,” saying it demonstrated how “Jews and Muslims can work as a team.”
