For over 30 years, donors like you have helped deliver life-saving support to people in their most difficult moments. Through your generosity, millions around the world have received food, clean water, medical aid, shelter, education, and long-term support. You’ve helped respond to hundreds of disasters from floods, earthquakes, and famine abroad, to major hurricanes and wildfires right here in the US.
Decades of Impact
Lasting Change
Your contributions have helped provide millions of hot meals, gallons of clean water, and vital care to the most vulnerable—including orphans, displaced families, and those affected by conflict or poverty. You’ve supported women in launching small businesses, helped children return to school, and made it possible for families to access healthcare in places where clinics barely exist.
The Future
We’re not just reacting to crises. Your action creates change. From every dollar, every fundraiser, every volunteer hour, to every like, comment, or share – you’ve helped fuel long-term solutions transforming communities and bringing hope to future generations.
Our mission to create a world free of poverty continues to this day and will continue until the need for humanitarian aid no longer exists. This mission continues because of people like you, and with each step forward, you’re helping to build a world where dignity, justice, and opportunity aren’t just ideals—they’re real, lived experiences for families across the globe.
Our actions in tackling poverty are marked by excellence in our operations and conduct, which are deserving of the people we serve.
In responding to poverty and suffering, our efforts are driven by sincerity to God and the need to fulfill our obligations to humanity.
Our work is founded on enabling people and institutions to fulfill the rights of the poor and vulnerable. We work to empower the dispossessed toward realizing their God-given human potential and developing their capabilities and resources.
We believe the protection and well-being of every life is of paramount importance and we shall join with other humanitarians to act as one in responding to suffering brought on by disasters, poverty, and injustice.
We uphold our duty of custodianship over the Earth, its resources and the trust people place in us as humanitarian and development practitioners. We are transparent and accountable.
