In the news, we sometimes see stories of actors, singers, and entrepreneurs donating millions of dollars to a nonprofit of their choosing.
While these gifts are incredible, it can leave you wondering — does my small gift really make a difference?
The answer is a resounding YES! Your gift, however big or small, makes a HUGE impact around the globe.
And right now is actually one of the best times to give through World Help, because without supporters like you, we might not reach our fiscal-year end goal. If that happens, we won’t be able to help as many people as we hoped.
Here’s how your gift would help:
Prevent a Shortfall
Men, women, and children worldwide are counting on YOU for help and hope
March 31 will mark the end of World Help’s fiscal year — and we’re currently facing a shortfall. If we don’t reach our giving goal, there are men, women, and children around the globe who may not get the help they so desperately need.
The good news is that it only takes $12 to transform a life! And when you give by March 31, your gift will DOUBLE to help TWICE as many people thanks to a $250,000 matching gift from our Board members.
That means your $12 gift will turn into $24 to provide food, clean water, warm clothing, medical care, God’s Word, and more to TWO people.
A great way to make your donation go further is to give when we have a matching gift opportunity. But that’s not the only way to make your gift count — here are some other opportunities to give small gifts that make a huge difference:
Distribute Bibles Around the World
Giving someone a Bible in their native language helps them grow in their faith
Did you know it only costs $10 to provide a person in need with their own copy of Scripture?
Many people around the world don’t have access to God’s Word because they live in a remote area, can’t afford a Bible, or face persecution for their faith.
But you can give God’s Word to someone today. Your gift might mean that someone gets to read the Bible for the very first time!
Provide Clean Water to Someone in Need
Access to clean water helps introduce people to the Living Water of Jesus Christ
Access to clean water completely transforms a person’s life.
Instead of spending hours collecting water, children can attend school and adults can go to work. Agriculture and livestock businesses will flourish. And people will no longer suffer from preventable waterborne illnesses.
For just $15, you can provide someone with clean water for an entire year. That’s the cost of just three cups of coffee from your favorite shop!
Give a Family a Chicken
Owning a chicken can help a family in need escape the chains of poverty
Owning livestock can help a family living in poverty gain financial independence. For just $22, you can provide someone in need with a chicken!
A single chicken can produce almost 200 eggs a year — which will introduce a powerful source of protein to a family’s diet. Any leftover eggs can then be sold at a local market for an additional source of income.
Feed a Starving Child
When a child has steady access to food, they do better in school!
One out of three children under the age of five is suffering from severe malnutrition.
Without access to food, a child’s immune system weakens, and their mental abilities decline. In extreme cases, bones and muscles break down and organs begin to fail. If this goes on for too long, they become at risk of starving to death.
But your small gift of $30 could provide one starving child with food for an entire year! For 365 days, a hungry child won’t have to worry where their next meal is coming from — that’s an incredible impact!
Whatever gift you can give is always greatly appreciated. No matter the amount, it will be used to transform lives around the globe.
And remember, one way you can make a huge impact with a small gift is by giving to help prevent a shortfall and have your gift double! When you give by March 31, your gift will help twice as many people thanks to the $250,000 matching gift.
