Church & Community Partnerships
No other international humanitarian organization engages local faith leaders like we do. We believe that God has a plan to save our broken world, and the heart of that plan is his church — and his people — leading the way. Working with these community leaders is not only a good strategy, it's truly the most sustainable and transformative way to create change that lasts. We want to see local churches worldwide creating and leading change in their communities through healthy partnerships so that the work can continue and bring lasting change long after we depart.
Holistic Approaches
We believe in transformation of the whole person —- mind, body and spirit. That's why our programs focus on root causes of vulnerability and addressing complex, often unseen challenges. Beyond physical change, we focus on driving mental, social and spiritual transformation. We know that lasting change requires more than quick fixes and band-aid solutions, and that by going deep to uncover systemic issues, we can create change that lasts.
Interconnected Solutions
We see the world's greatest challenges as inextricably linked. We take a global, whole-picture approach to addressing challenges across multiple contexts with a distinct “here and there” approach that unites our work in the U.S. and other nations with a shared purpose and vision — from a refugee camp in Sudan to an employment office in Memphis.
