No kid sleeps hungry
Hunger touches every community, nation, and region of the world. It is a problem without a simple solution.
Hunger hurts 1 out of every 7 children. The biggest reason kids are hungry, both in Canada and around the world, is poverty. Poverty often means children not only don’t have enough to eat, they don’t have access to clean water, health care or education. They face hunger, disease and even death.
To end childhood hunger, we must work together to break the cycle of poverty, by providing food and long-term solutions like clean water and education.At Society of Humans for Humanity, we are committed to using the resources of our members, donors and corporate organisations to help run the “No kid sleeps hungry” program in Canada and around the world.

Youth Mental Health
Cadieux says 29,000 children in B.C. are receiving mental health services, which is double the number in 2003.
“It is disturbing. It is a nasty trend that society has to wrestle with,” said Cadieux.
“There are not clear indications of why this is the case, but what we know is these children truly need help.”
Society of Humans for Humanity will help families to meet with a clinician directly and find out quickly — often the same day — whether they were eligible for Govt services. We also provide education and counselling to families to save their children from depression, drugs and abuse.

Organ Donation
There is very less awareness about organ donation in communities like Asians, A recent study looked at all deceased organ donations in B.C. from 2005 to 2009: a total of 182 donors and 765 recipients (a single donor typically donates several organs).Whites made up 89 per cent of donors but only 69 per cent of recipients. In contrast, East Asians (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) made up four per cent of donors and 12 per cent of recipients. And South Asians (Indians, Pakistanis) made up one per cent of donors and eight per cent of recipients.
Society of Humans for Humanity is working tirelessly in collaboration with BC Transplant to raise awareness about the organ donation in Fraser Valley Area specially among communities like East Asians and South Asians. Same ethnicity of Donor and Recipient increases the chances of matching the organ type thus saving many lives.

Our Volunteers Always Going Through The Service
For some, volunteering can be a route to employment, or a chance to try something new which may lead to a career change.
