Story
After travelling through Calais, Greece, Lebanon and parts of the UK to witness, share and inspire on what's taking place on the ground in the refugee crisis, we met organisations making a huge difference to those fleeing wars and tyranny. They bring shelter, sanitation, food, education, women and children’s services, psychotherapy and much more to those who need it the most.
We now want to help those organisations by raising funds for them and need your help.
Our aim is to raise £23,500
We plan for 72% of the funds to go to:-
Registered charities:
1. Do-Your-Part

The remaining 28% will support post-production and promotion of Humanity’s Heart's 3 other films educating us further on the refugee crisis and to Music with Refugees* who have provided some of the music for the films.

"Life in the Camps and accessing Human Rights"
"Becoming a Lost Generation & the Importance of Education" and
"Integrating refugees into Communities"
9. *Music with Refugees
