Eubank's humanitarian experience lends authority to her principles, and the focus on sustainable, dignified aid addresses common pitfalls in charitable work. This could be valuable for readers wanting to help but unsure how to do it effectively.

The author had a way of drawing me in by sharing personal experiences in humanitarian work. Her insights were that the people who need help also need to be able to keep their dignity, which is very important when giving aid. Those closest to the situation can best help with the solution. Sharon Eubank shared several examples of those who thought they were being helpful, and in some instances, they created more problems. I liked this quote form the book 'Iv we focus simply on the infrastructure of food, sanitation, security and shelter, we miss the heart of the matter.' The book gives several suggestions of how humanitarian work can be done right in our own neighborhood and community.

This book delivers exactly as promised. The author lays out principles for humanitarian action, explains each, and offers stories and suggestions to apply those locally. This one has a very textbook vibe and such a specific, narrow, focus that I’m not sure of universal appeal. Might recommend to church groups looking to make local impact.

I adore Sharon Eubank and was delighted to read her book. Sharon offers brilliant and easy to implement ideas to make a difference in both a small and large scale way. I highly recommend this beautifully impactful book. Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the review copy.
