The charity is made up of a diverse staff and works in 25 countries. It runs targeted poverty relief programmes in the following areas:
• Emergency response – providing humanitarian aid and responding to natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods. In particular, the charity specialises in water purification and sanitation systems, food security, and building large shelters.
• Sustainable development – concentrating on poverty alleviation, income generation, skills and training, education (both building schools and curriculum development), health (maternal health and child health) and gender equality.
Human Appeal is a patron of Mosaic Network, an organisation founded by HRH the Prince of Wales in 2007 which inspires young people from deprived communities to realise their talents and potential.
Human Appeal has had a wide variety of celebrity support, most notably from past and present footballers from English Premier League clubs Chelsea and Arsenal.
