Heartfelt Reviews

"I've had the good fortune to work with the folks at Global Action Institute on multiple occasions. They are purpose driven, mission focused and have brought their brand of assistance and charitable aid to the US, Middle East, Africa, and Asia. Here's an example of the type of organization GAI is: they believe so strongly in their current project that they are self-funding travel and logistics expenses to be able to provide as much relief as possible to the intended recipients.

Global Action Institute is a labor of love fueling charitable endeavors."

"I'm very impressed with Global Action Institute. They bring a level of passion and expertise in a much-need non-profit niche. It's necessary to protect the people across the world who are doing good work. GAI trains emergency safety providers on how to survive and thrive in order to better help both themselves and others. Their ability to raise money, coordinate logistics, and network in diverse places really inspires me as a volunteer. I'm a fan and I appreciate all that they do."

They're organized, communicative, flexible and trustworthy. Their coordination efforts are spectacular, they're dedicated to their work, and they take the time to give above and beyond in terms of effort and equipment! Highly recommend supporting, participating in, and being involved with this nonprofit!"
