After a community’s most immediate needs have been met, the most effective way you can help is by empowering them to sustain themselves. By providing vocational training and agricultural opportunities, you give mothers and fathers peace of mind knowing they can feed their children each day. By equipping local pastors, you ensure that the Gospel will continue to thrive in the community for years to come.

Investing in education is one of the most powerful ways you can make a lasting impact. Education gives children the one thing many people in the developing world lack—opportunity. Unfortunately, families often cannot afford school fees or supplies. When you enable a child to attend school, you give them the freedom to choose what they want to be when they grow up and the ability to send their own children to school someday.
