Horrific violence in Sudan. Devastation in the wake of Hurricane Melissa. Prolonged suffering in Gaza. Families living in fear across the U.S. The violent storms of crisis after crisis are impossible to ignore. Our hearts ache and our bodies fatigue as we witness the scale of suffering across our world. And yet — we hold onto Hope.
Together with you, World Relief is boldly responding to these crises, inspired by the audacious belief that human flourishing is possible — even in the midst of devastation.
This holiday season, we remember that when storms rage, Jesus shows up, bringing light, peace and hope in the midst of urgent need. He comes alongside us so that together, we can come alongside others in their greatest hour of need.
Let us embody the love, peace and light of Christ this season.
Your generosity is critical in our ability to respond to these urgent crises and offer hope to millions who are suffering.
Discover why people are displaced and how your prayers, voice, and generosity can help them rebuild.
For over 80 years, across 100 countries we’ve been boldly engaging the world’s greatest crises in partnership with the church.
With you, in 2024, we:
Reduced suffering for over 3.3 million people around the world
Recruited 26,996 volunteers to be the hands and feet of Jesus
Mobilized 4,500+ churches to love their neighbor
Served over 44,000 immigrants in the U.S.
Born out of a heartfelt response to the displacement crisis in Europe after World War II, we’ve spent the last 80 years convening the global church to respond to the world’s greatest humanitarian crises.
Urge President Trump to uphold his commitment to protecting persecuted Christians and for his administration to sustain the refugee resettlement program.
Seeing what World Relief was doing, I thought — thank God something is happening. There is still goodness in the world. World Relief is changing lives.
