“It is impressive to learn how Baal Dan mobilizes resources efficiently and overcomes obstacles to deliver daily necessities to children around the world. I think what makes Baal Dan’s work so impactful is that the team keeps its focus simple. They find a need, even if small, and then they find the resources to fill the gap to eliminate that need. Whether the need is in the area of health, nutrition, education, lodging, clothing, or even something obscure, Baal Dan finds a way to help.”
Steven Lange, Corporate Relations, American Cancer Society
“Tanya Pinto has done amazing things with Baal Dan and others should learn from her experience and efficiencies she has built up over the years! Give credit to Tanya Pinto for navigating the waters of corruption, theft and waste often associated with International organizations; Tanya and the volunteers that are a part of Baal Dan have done such amazing things!”

"It's a joy giving to Baal Dan because you can see the impact it's made in children's lives over the years. The hard work that goes on behind the scenes to vet trusted partners and keep costs at a bare minimum creates tremendous value knowing your donations are really going towards helping children who need it most. And in an era of view counts and likes, it is refreshing to be reminded that something as simple as one meal for one child can truly make a difference."

"I have had the privilege of witnessing the incredible impact of Baal Dan Charities in their mission to save and enrich the lives of children worldwide. Their dedication to providing food, shelter, education, and medical care to some of the most vulnerable children is truly inspiring. What sets Baal Dan apart is not just the depth of their compassion but also their outstanding financial stewardship and transparency. Every dollar is used with the utmost responsibility, ensuring that contributions go directly to those in need. I am honored to support their mission."
Steve Quirk, President, Quirk’s Media
"Hearing Tanya recount her experiences with vulnerable children in India struck a very personal note for me. Tanya's inspiring belief that providing food and education can break the cycle of poverty within a generation motivated me to act. I value how directly Baal Dan addresses immediate needs, ensuring every effort and donation makes a tangible impact. My support for Baal Dan is a profoundly heartfelt effort to help those children who face immense adversity in their most formative years of development."
Mel Ruffini, Construction Executive NYC
"Tanya Pinto came to our martial arts summer camp in August of 2024 and spent time explaining Baal Dan Charities to the camp participants. She did an excellent job of describing the basic needs of impoverished and vulnerable children that were being unmet and what we could do to lend our support. The camp participants connected very well with the mission and purpose of Baal Dan and enthusiastically went about collecting donations. It was wonderful to see them connect with an important purpose of helping others, especially those in daily need beyond our comprehension."
Skyler Zoppi, President, True Martial Arts
"My family gives to Baal Dan because we know that 100% of our donations go directly to children and families in need. We know that all of the groups Baal Dan supports have been closely vetted and that each distribution of funds is audited for appropriate use and impact. In short, we know every penny we donate has a targeted and verified impact on children in need."
Reed Cundiff, Board Member, Baal Dan
"Supporting Baal Dan Charities isn’t a question—it’s a necessity. Their work translates into real, measurable impact—providing food, education, and shelter to children in need. As a corporate sponsor, I’ve seen firsthand how our contributions directly change lives. Supporting Baal Dan isn’t just giving—it’s joining a community committed to making a real difference. I encourage others in our industry to get involved and see the impact for themselves."
Amy R. Castelda, Partner, W5
I heard of Baal Dan at a Quirks conference and immediately feel in love with the cause. You change generations when you change a child’s life. This is a wonderful way to impact today and the future of children across the globe.
Jami Pulley, CEO, Veridata
Baal Dan Charities unwavering dedication to supporting vulnerable children worldwide is truly inspiring. Their commitment to channeling nearly every dollar raised directly to those in need ensures that donations make a meaningful impact.
April Bell, CEO, Made with Empathy
“The moment of clarity happened at a fundraising dinner. Tanya redefined a 'normal day' from the eyes of an abandoned street child. The situation was no longer 'out of sight' or 'out of mind'. The child had a name. His squalor became my squalor. I had to act by any means necessary! Yes, poverty is a daunting injustice to solve. Baal Dan doesn't claim to be the answer, only a tool in which to fight, and as a charity with no paid employees, each volunteer fights with the fervor of Baal Dan’s founder. I may never see the child I serve, but I know my time inches him/her closer to a life afforded basic human rights! With an operational overhead of less than 3% since the inception of this charity in 2006, coupled with the transparency of audited financials, I am assured that not only my money but the donations from my inner circle of friends and family are stewarded responsibly. Baal Dan has earned my trust.”
Mat Varghese, Baal Dan Donor & Supporter, Dallas
“The hook for me was knowing that any effort towards supporting Baal Dan had a direct short term effect. I loved Baal Dan's format of helping existing NGO's. Its not like big NGO's or fundraising drives for a blanket cause where there is no way to know how exactly my money is being spent. I like knowing that any effort towards supporting Baal Dan had a direct short term effect. I am most certain that I am actually volunteering and giving time for Tanya. Her commitment and passions for this cause and running Baal Dan is unquestionable. I tell people to donate to Baal Dan because they will know exactly the impact their donations will make. There is 100% accountability with Baal Dan. Kids are our Future. And there are way to many who are robbed of their childhood.”
Jeenal Shah, Baal Dan Volunteer, New York City
“Helping others, especially children is my passion. So, when Baal Dan offered to help kids from Ethiopia, I wholeheartedly wanted to help and give my time to be a bridge between the kids and Baal Dan. I loved the idea that Baal Dan funds go directly to the immediate needs of the children - in our case education and health! With the help of Baal Dan, kids are able to go to private schools, which are far too expensive for their mothers to afford, they get quality education in friendly environment, while their mothers could get more time to work and earn more money.”
Lulayn Awgichew, Baal Dan Volunteer, Ethiopia
"Most people I know are willing to give, but there's often a trust barrier that causes hesitation. Will my money be used as intended? Will it have the impact I want it to have? These questions have given me pause before. After accompanying Tanya on a Baal Dan project mission to Haiti, I can say the answer is a resounding YES to both questions. Baal Dan links a need with a solution in the most direct way possible, and I've never seen anyone vet projects with a more critical eye."
Jeremy Hastings, US Diplomat & Baal Dan Advisory Board Member
"Baal Dan is one of the very few international charities on this planet that is truly transparent in their ways and true to its mission. The difference the charity makes can directly be seen. This is what ultimately attracted me to Baal Dan. Baal Dan does not have any full-time staff or an office, the donations given to the charity truly go toward the intended cause. Every so often, I get an update on Facebook of Ms. Pinto in a foreign country helping establish a school, a water well, a kitchen, etc. and it warms my heart knowing the cause that we are all contributing to is resulting in children actually benefitting tremendously."
Prem Menon, Former Baal Dan UT San Antonio President
“Tanya: When you first started 'Baal Dan’ you had a lot of support because people believed in you. Everything about your charity begins with you following a path to help so many children in just the right way. Your youth, personal timing and selfless giving is way more than a financial contribution. Your beautiful, sweet face is just the ticket to bring life to others. You bring love of life to children and add perspective, education, humility, and, most importantly plant a smile reflecting the joy of opportunity. You make small things big. What I like most is knowing Tanya Pinto, a very special dedicated beautiful person who plants love in children and the opportunity to change lives for the future of humanity. You started at just the right time, in just the right place to really make a difference. Thank you for changing lives… You will be remembered by all… I think Jason Garrett would say… ‘you are the right kind of Girl!’ I would say… ‘you have the right kind of love’. Be Well!”
