Forest Baptist Church

Around the world, 826 million people live in extreme poverty. That’s one in ten people who must devote all their resources to survival, making it impossible to build a better future for themselves or their children.

By putting your faith in action and supporting the work of our local Christian Partners, you’ll be part of seeing God at work in more than 18 countries—places where hunger, poverty and disaster hit people the hardest.

Together with your church, you’ll help fund:

• Child and Youth Clubs – programs where children and young people reduce their risk of exploitation and child marriage, and gain the life skills and confidence they need to build a better future.
• Self Help Groups – community-led groups where members work together to address community issues such as domestic violence and access to clean water.
• Livelihood Training – programs that help people establish small businesses such as farming, so they can better provide for their families and invest in their community.
• Disaster Preparedness – programs that help communities increase their resilience to disasters such as floods, earthquakes and conflicts, so they have a better chance of survival.
• Healthcare Support – our Partners train volunteers, provide services, and help communities protect themselves from diseases like malaria.

Through the work of our local Christian Partners, your gift will make the biggest impact possible and help create long-term change for a better world.
