Thanks to you and your generous support!

We are saving lives around the world because you helped us with significant year-end giving by:

  • Reaching our $200,000 Matching Grant to release more than $400,000 of lifesaving assistance around the world through our Gifts of Hope Catalog.
  • Bringing care and medicines to Congolese refugees fighting for their lives as they cross the Ugandan border seeking help.

We need your continued support this year as we care for thousands of patients in the Congo suffering from cholera, malaria and other diseases. We also are meeting increasing needs of  people here at home who have no dental care, especially children, and medicines we help provide. Thank you for your ongoing prayers and giving as you can in 2009.
