Humanist Alliance Philippines, International (HAPI) has been internationally recognized by GO Humanity yet again, bagging the “Humanism at Work” Award during the latter organization’s Heart of Humanism Awards last July 14, 2022. GO Humanity, which is a global network of humanist organizations, gives the award to the team that attained the most volunteer hours over the past year.
The coveted “Humanism at Work” trophy recently arrived at HAPI Headquarters in Bulacan, where it is now proudly displayed as a reminder of all the hard work and efforts of the organization.
This is the fourth time HAPI has received the annual “Humanism at Work” Award, having attained it in 2017, 2020, and 2021 as well.
HAPI’s continuous desire to change society has not gone unnoticed by GO Humanity. As explained by Angie Driskell, one of HAPI’s officers and Ambassador for HAPI Junior, “it acknowledges our hard work and dedication to helping the community as well as HAPI’s love for its advocacies.” She emphasized how awards like this will let other organizations know who HAPI is and what it does.
HAPI’s history with GO Humanity goes back to 2015. Having consistently made a difference in Philippine society through their union, Filipinos can expect more collaborations from both teams. HAPI is currently part of GO Humanity’s Food Security Program and the latter also supports HAPI’s educational and safety campaigns and its sustainable vegetable garden initiative.
“It is always nice to be noticed for all we do at HAPI, but it is greater testimony of the trust and faith GO Humanity has in our organization and its programs,” Driskell said. She added how grateful HAPI is not only for the financial support but how that support is constant. “Sometimes, there are just not enough words to express how proud we are to be partners with GO Humanity, We are forever grateful.”
A round of applause and appreciation goes to HAPI volunteers who work tirelessly and passionately for their community and the betterment of society. This award is for all HAPI officers and members that sacrificed their time, effort, and resources for the organization.
