About Humanitarian Coalition:
Founded in 2005, Humanitarian Coalition raises money to help people in areas affected by disaster and conflict. The coalition distributes funds to seven member agencies which administer aid: Canadian Lutheran World Relief, CARE Canada, Islamic Relief Canada, Oxfam Canada, Oxfam Québec, Plan International Canada, and Save the Children Canada. The agencies are already present in disaster areas, with established community relationships to maximize the speed and efficiency of aid provision.
Humanitarian Coalition operates the Canadian Humanitarian Assistance Fund (CHAF) which distributes money to help in areas affected by small disasters. Without the fund, aid efforts addressing small-scale disasters would be significantly underfunded due to limited media attention. Since 2014, Humanitarian Coalition has provided $10.4 million in aid for 50 small-scale disasters. Funds are distributed quickly, with an average of five days from request to approval. In the last 18 months, the small-scale disasters receiving the most aid were $411,764 to Sri Lanka for flooding, $410,000 after an earthquake in Papua New Guinea, and $390,000 after flash floods in Ethiopia.
Humanitarian Coalition currently has two campaigns raising money for large disasters. Stop Famine Together is working to provide help to 40 million people in Africa who are affected by drought and conflict. Agencies are providing money, food, water, healthcare, and counselling in South Sudan, Kenya, Ethiopia, Somalia, Yemen, Nigeria, and Uganda. Similar support has been provided to 350,000 refugees from Myanmar who are now in Bangladesh.
Financial Review:
Humanitarian Coalition is medium-sized, with donations of $3.2m in F2017. The charity received $2.7m in government grants, representing 45% of total revenues. Administrative costs are 10% of revenues and fundraising costs are 6% of donations. For every $1 raised, 84 cents go to the cause, falling well within Ci’s reasonable range. Humanitarian Coalition has $2.0m in funding reserves which could cover less than six months of program costs. This indicates a need for funding.
