I will never forget.
January 13, 2025by: JoDee Claxton - United StatesProgram: All Hands and Hearts | Disaster Relief NonprofitI had such an amazing experience with All Hands. This was my first experience traveling alone away from home and I felt safe the entire time. I made wonderful friends. I truly felt like we were making an impact. I was seen as a human by the staff who allowed me to use my passion for photography to help make an impact and that changed my life. I made this video!
I had a best experience of my life
January 11, 2025by: Umair khalil Ullah - PakistanProgram: All Hands and Hearts | Disaster Relief NonprofitWonderful Experience with All Hands and Hearts! I had the privilege of volunteering with All Hands and Hearts Smart Response in 2019 in Sindhuli, Nepal. It was an incredible experience that left an indelible mark on my life. Our team constructed 3 schools and a water supply project, providing the local community with essential infrastructure for quality education. Working with AHAH was a dream come true, as promoting education in underprivileged areas is a cause close to my heart. The organization's dedication to providing disaster-relief and supporting local communities is truly inspiring. The best part of my experience was the opportunity to work with an amazing team of volunteers and staff from diverse backgrounds. We shared a common goal, and our camaraderie made the experience even more enjoyable. I spent three unforgettable weeks in Sindhuli, and I wish I could relive those moments again. As someone who has worked with various humanitarian organizations and runs an orphanage for girl kids in my area, I can confidently say that AHAH stands out for its professionalism, teamwork, and commitment to making a difference. If I could, I would join AHAH again and again. I highly recommend this organization to anyone looking to make a positive impact in the world. Rating: 5/5 stars

AHAH Maui
January 11, 2025by: Jane Doe - United StatesProgram: All Hands and Hearts | Disaster Relief NonprofitAHAH Maui has a dedicated and passionate staff who is genuinly invested in teh wellbeing on local/ Native Hawai'ian people. You will get what you put into immersion with the community. The base is in a very rural area, and is extremely simple. I respect that the program has volunteers campso as no tto take away from limited housing on the island. They really need volunteers right now and I would encourage anyone visiting Maui to give back to the island by supporting organizations like this that uplift local Native organizations.

Participated in 2018
My parents live in Yabucoa, Puerto Rico. After hearing about the damage and the struggles on the island, I had to give back to my people in their time of need. I decided to volunteer for two weeks and help many in need after Hurricane Maria. I enjoyed my time with the home owners and all the help I was able to provide, thanks to the program.
