GIVE NOW to Disaster Appeal: Puerto Rico Earthquakes Puerto Rico has been rocked by a series of earthquakes beginning December 28th, including one that was the strongest Puerto Rico has experienced in over 100 years. We are collecting funds to support Proyecto Matria, a local organization that will provide effective and compassionate support to communities affected by the earthquakes, just as they have done in their Hurricane Maria recovery efforts. Learn more about the earthquakes and our efforts to help. At this time 100% of donated funds (less processing fees) will be given as a grant to Proyecto Matria. As the disaster continues and more information is received, FBB may choose additional avenues for supporting those affected. The Humanist Disaster Recovery program is sustained through a partnership between Foundation Beyond Belief and the American Humanist Association (AHA). We thank AHA for their generous support of our efforts.

For the foreseeable future, we are collecting funds to support The Florence Immigrant and Refugee Rights Project (“the Florence Project”), which provides free legal and social services to adults and children in immigration custody in Arizona facing deportation. As this crisis continues and events develop, FBB may choose additional avenues for supporting those affected.

GIVE NOW to Humanist Disaster Recovery Humanist Disaster Recovery (HDR) serves as a focal point for the humanist response to major disasters and humanitarian crises all over the world. HDR's mission is to bring resources to those in need and to raise awareness of that need in the humanist community and beyond. We provide both financial support to secular organizations working locally, and groups of trained volunteers to work in recovering communities. To best use donated dollars in a cost-efficient manner, volunteer deployments are typically held in disaster-struck communities in the contiguous United States.

GIVE NOW to the Humanist Experience Podcast The Humanist Experience podcast follows the cross-country voyage of Evan and Seráh—activists, journalists, and Humanists—as they are placed in a variety of situations where they report on cultural ugliness, strange beauty, and their own personal fears. Evan and Seráh dive compassionately, curiously, and bravely into communities and lifestyles across America—and into themselves. Their commitment to social change motivates them to look for ways to effectively connect people to contemporary issues and persuade them to become changemakers. The podcast uses experiential learning and storytelling to provide insight and inspiration for engaging positively in the world around us. Listen to The Humanist Experience Podcast.
