At different times, the communities in which our teams live in across the world and Australia face unexpected natural or humanitarian emergencies. We want to be prepared to show the love of Jesus in action when urgent needs arise.

When floods, fires, cyclones and other natural disasters strike local communities, or there is civil unrest and disturbance, we want to respond quickly and practically in meeting urgent humanitarian needs. That’s why we have set up a Community Relief Fund.

The fund allows our teams to support impacted people and communities in a range of practical ways including safe access to water, food provision, medical supplies and temporary relief accommodation. This project is specifically for the emergency relief. Longer term community rebuilding will take shape through other projects.

We have been encouraged by how team members have been able to access the fund and make a tangible difference in their local communities.

This fund has an annual target of $25,000.

Being the hands and feet of Jesus means being ready to respond to the needs of people around us. As our team members play a vital role in their communities they not only meet needs and bring hope, but they also strengthen community connections and build trusting, respectful relationships.

Through support of this project, you enable our teams to be ready to proactively and compassionately respond to emergencies in their local communities Your generosity enables us to address urgent, practical humanitarian needs in the places we serve in across the world.
