“Highly commended” at Third Sector Awards

UK, 30 Sep – MapAction is delighted to have been “highly commended” as a finalist at the Third Sector charity awards earlier this month. The commendation was in recognition of MapAction’s response to Typhoon Haiyan under the category “Small Charity Big Achiever”.

MapAction’s Chief Executive, Liz Hughes, commented: “While the focus of this nomination was our response to Typhoon Haiyan, it celebrated the remarkable commitment and can-do attitude of all our volunteers in so many challenging emergency situations every year.  Receiving this recognition under the banner “Small Charity, Big Achiever” underlines the vital difference this small volunteer team makes within global humanitarian response.”
