OUR MISSION

We empower remote communities worldwide, with a special focus on those facing heightened vulnerabilities, by fostering self-sustainability and resilience. We believe in addressing the root causes of vulnerability to prevent displacement and protect individuals from falling prey to human trafficking, extremist groups, organ harvesting, and other atrocities. Through your support, we aim to provide these communities with the tools, education, renewable resources, and opportunities needed to thrive independently, ensuring a brighter, more secure future for all.

HOW IT ALL STARTED

It all began in 2016 when we first traveled to a remote Massai village in Kenya. Joel’s village as it was called, is tucked between a series of hills on the northern shores of Lake Natron. Once we arrived, we were immediately struck by the sheer lack of services available to the community. The school consisted of a small structure built from sticks that lacked benches or chairs. The students used twigs and rocks to practice handwriting and arithmetic. Drinking water was scarce, forcing villagers to trudge to nearby streams to retrieve it. Despite everything, we were amazed by the resilience of the locals who were always smiling, laughing, and singing, exuding a type of happiness that few of us had ever seen before.

The enthusiasm and grit exhibited by the residents of Joel’s village inspired us to help in any way possible. We first began by constructing a school which now has over 200 students. We then built a small medical clinic and a church.

 What began in Joel’s village, has now spread to over 20 countries worldwide. From sponsoring orphans in Rwanda to providing displaced and persecuted minorities in the Middle East with food and medication, to digging wells and building sustainable projects in Africa, the list is long and extends to four continents. So far, we have assisted more than 26,000 people of the poorest and most vulnerable, especially widows, women-at-risk, and orphans. With your support we will continue to feed the poor, build schools and small medical clinics, and introduce renewable resources to thousands of people in forgotten regions of the world.

“TRUE LOVE DOES NOT JUDGE, IT ONLY BLESSES. AND I CAN TELL YOU FROM EXPERIENCE THAT THERE IS NOTHING GREATER IN LIFE. WE ENTERED THE WORLD NAKED AND WE WILL LEAVE IT NAKED. WHAT WE DO IN BETWEEN IS UP TO US. HELPING A PERSON IN NEED IS NOT HARD, IT JUST REQUIRES ACTION. FANFARE, PLANNING, DISCUSSIONS, MEETINGS ARE NOT NECESSARY …. IT ONLY TAKES A SIMPLE ACT OF KINDNESS THAT LASTS AN ETERNITY EVEN IF IT IS SMALL IN NATURE
