OUR MISSION We do Tough Things for people in Tough Places as an Active Response to the Gospel. HOW WE WORK We partner with local churches and national leaders to implement a Care Point strategy. These Care Points focus on food, education and discipleship for future Christian leaders. Food Security Venture provides meals to help malnourished people living in Southeast Asia. Our programs prevent some families from selling their older children to pay for food for the younger siblings. In partnership with Feed My Starving Children, we serve over 9,000 people every day. Education Venture offers scholarships, after-school programming, and English education to vulnerable children in rural areas of Southeast Asia. The knowledge and skills gained from these programs, provide better job opportunities as they grow older, and prevent some children from being trafficked. Discipleship Venture empowers vulnerable children to become the next generation of Christian leaders through evangelism, Bible training, prayer and discipleship. WHERE WE WORK The Thailand Burma border is a global epicenter for trafficking, sex slavery, child soldiers, extreme poverty and refugees. Virtually no one knows about this crisis, which is one of the world’s worst. YOU CAN HELP $10 provides 100 meals for a refugee along the border. $300 provides education to a child for a year. $300 provides shelter and clothing for a child for a year.
