Mass media: a powerful tool, often misused. We’re trying to turn that around with uplifting programs that encourage listeners to reflect and to act with vision, conscience and compassion.

Consider making a tax-deductible contribution to the Humankind Program Fund, which supports production and distribution of our programs. The fund is administered by Documentary Educational Resources (DER), founded in 1968 to foster development of educational films, primarily on societal and anthropological subjects. DER, a 501c3 nonprofit organization, has expanded to support distribution of public radio and podcast productions, including  Humankind.

If you wish to send a large amount, please consider mailing a check. Note in the check memo space: Humankind Program Fund. Donations are payable to:
