No. 04 The work
The work, named.
Every program below addresses a specific and urgent need in rural Nigeria. Every dollar you give goes directly to one of them — and we will tell you which.
The eight
Each program below is funded, staffed, and tracked. The current count tells you what has been done. The impact line tells you what it means. Support a specific program by routing your gift there.
Skills training, trauma-informed counseling, ongoing discipleship and mentoring, and leadership & life-skills training for girls rescued from sex trafficking. The safe house is the front door; a livelihood is the back door.
Monetary assistance, cooking supplies, and clothing for widows in rural communities. Bishop Collins's annual widows' conferences provide protective garments and stipends to thousands more across Nigeria.
Food distribution and emergency assistance for families in crisis — most of them widow-led households, mothers with small children, or displaced families with nowhere else to turn.
School supplies, uniforms, and menstrual health products that keep girls in the classroom — and out of the early marriages that statistically claim them when they leave.
Basic health screenings, treatment for illnesses, and funding for emergency surgeries — delivered in villages where the nearest clinic is thirty miles away in either direction, and the next mission may not come for another year.
We equip widows with baby chicks, coops, cooking supplies and seeds so they can build sustainable livelihoods. Eggs become breakfast, then income, then a reason to stay home.
Motorcycles and fuel for missionaries serving remote and high-risk villages — places where the road is a footpath and the rainy season cuts a community off for weeks at a time.
Monthly stipends — fifty dollars at a time — for pastors serving in high-risk regions, displaced communities, and impoverished rural villages, so the small economic pressure doesn't pull them away from their work.
"We share God's love by preaching the gospel without words."
One hundred percent of your gift goes directly to programs. If you want it to go to a specific one, tell us — we will route it there and report back to you on what it did.
