Our organization is supported by a broad spectrum of caring people and we are not affiliated with any denomination and remain true to our roots in compassionate Christianity.Donations to our work come in many forms, such as volunteering time, providing free expertise, equipment, medicine, shipping costs, and donations of funds.
