Programs & Activities

Program 1

$9.0M

INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS: World Help works with national Christian partners in some of the most impoverished places on earth to be the hands, feet, and heart of Jesus on the ground. We focus on helping save lives; meeting urgent needs through aid and relief projects; investing in long-term sustainable transformation through agriculture initiatives, education, and vocational training; building and equipping medical facilities, providing clean water; and sponsoring children living in poverty. Our goal is to meet people's physical needs so we have an opportunity to meet their spiritual needs as well. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: Meeting basic needs alone doesn't create long term sustainability in a community. Giving physical help without developmental solutions can foster dependence. World Help is committed to changing lives through our Community Transformation initiative. When we provide clean water, access to education, and spiritual support, we lay the groundwork for lasting transformation.

Program 2

$310K

OUTREACH MINISTRIES: World Help's children of the world international children's choir, which is composed of international children from our child sponsorship programs, travels the country to present the desperate reality of millions of children who cannot speak for themselves. The program aims to use song, dance, spoken word, and creative media to inspire audiences across the United States to step out in faith and sponsor an impoverished child in need. The in-person, touring element of the ministry was stopped in March 2020, until further notice, due to the implications of Covid-19; however, the recorded music produced over two decades of touring, continues to impact lives around the world. In addition to this, the outreach ministry continues to invest in choir alum, who, upon graduating from their sponsorship programs, are each granted a scholarship to a local college or technical institution of their choosing for having participated on the children of the world international children's choir for a tour year.
