UMANO - 501c3 Nonprofit champions long-term solutions over temporary fixes by spotlighting and directly supporting the unsung changemakers in social issues, animal justice, and environmental advocacy, among others
From underprivileged artists pouring a lifetime into their craft, to the last two northern white rhinos on Earth. From a hospital without electricity in Madagascar, to the environmental advocates fighting for what remains — UMANO stands with them all. We envision changemakers who don’t just show up once. They stay, they collaborate, and they create change that lasts.
