Team Humaneity Team Humaneity is Humaneity Foundation's initiative www.humaneityfoundation.org

to involve people through every day sports activities to
raise money for charity. Whether you play golf, tennis,
run marathons, swimming, walking, it does not matter,
you can simply sign people up and get them to
sponsor you for participating. Team Humaneity is a
global community of active people who want to use
the events they are participating in to help raise
money to give back. People have two choices on ‘how’
to give back they can raise money for the Humaneity
Foundation or to nominate a charity of their own. It
makes no difference, as long as more and more
people are involved in giving back.
