Help a Farm Family Grow a Bountiful Crop
Chey, a young Cambodian farmer, was struggling to feed his wife and six children. When the crops failed, they couldn’t even afford a place to live. A local church let the family stay in their sanctuary, and all eight of them accepted Jesus Christ as Savior. Then a Samaritan’s Purse team came along and provided local farmers with seeds and taught them how to grow bountiful crops of vegetables and rice. Now Chey has extra produce to sell to pay for housing, medicine, and other essentials. As little as $45 can supply a farmer with seeds, fertilizer, tools, training, or other aid. Working with local churches, we can trust God for an abundant spiritual harvest: “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up” (Galatians 6:9, NIV).
Dairy Animals – YouTube video
Around the world, more people drink milk from goats than from cows. One goat can produce enough nourishing milk for a family, and a small herd can supply a steady source of income. As our teams provide families with goats, we also furnish training and veterinary care, building relationships that offer opportunities to present the Good News of Jesus Christ. “I am grateful to God and Samaritan’s Purse for uplifting our family and community,” said Mugisha, a Ugandan farmer whose herd has grown so much that he donates goats to help other families. A gift of $70 can supply a goat or other dairy animal to a family in need.
Teach a Child to Read and Write
Without an education, this little Sri Lankan boy was probably doomed to a life of hard labor, hunger, and hopelessness. Around the globe, Samaritan’s Purse helps thousands of children like this through a variety of education and literacy projects that bring hope to impoverished communities and offer local believers an effective means of sharing the Gospel. A $15 gift can provide a month’s tuition or school supplies, enabling an eager student to learn of Jesus Christ, “in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” (Colossians 2:3, NIV).
Rescue a Child from Exploitation
Every day, thousands of children fall prey to human traffickers. Some are forced to serve as soldiers or perform menial labor—but many more are enslaved in the worst kind of exploitation and abuse. Samaritan’s Purse works through Christian partners worldwide to protect vulnerable children from trafficking and to rehabilitate young victims of exploitation. For $75, we can provide a child with basic necessities, safe shelter, job training, counseling—and the opportunity to experience true freedom in Christ. “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed” (John 8:36, NIV).
Honey Bees
Little honeybees can be a big blessing for struggling rural families, who can sell honey and beeswax to pay for education, healthcare, or other basic needs. The bees also pollinate plants, increasing fruit and vegetable yields. We provide the starter hives, equipment, and training to start a successful honey business. For $35, we can help a family get started in beekeeping and earn a hearing for God’s Word, which is “sweeter than honey” (Psalm 119:103).
Life-Saving Mosquito Nets - YouTube
While they sleep tonight, thousands of children will be bitten by mosquitoes that spread one of the world’s most rampant and deadly diseases. Malaria kills over a million people each year, most of them children under age 5. For $10, we can provide a bed net treated with natural insecticide to kill mosquitoes and keep children safe and healthy. As local Christians hand out these nets, God gives them opportunities to tell families the message of eternal life.
Baby Chicks
Chickens are at the top of the “pecking order” when it comes to helping needy families. A small flock can produce hundreds of eggs each year, enough to eat with plenty left over to sell. Samaritan’s Purse works with local believers in developing countries to furnish baby chickens or ducks, and to help families raise them properly. For $14, we can supply a starter brood of a dozen chicks.
Freshwater Wells
At two miles above sea level, the Aymara people of the Altiplano region of Bolivia literally live above the clouds. Several months can pass without rain. Samaritan’s Purse has helped scores of Aymara families by digging wells and supplying hand-pumps (pictured). Across Latin America, Africa, and Asia , our teams have built or repaired hundreds of wells, along with providing pumps and other equipment. Costs range from $250 for a hand-dug well serving a few families to $10,000 for a deep-drilled well serving an entire community. Through your gift, many will hear of the gracious Lord who promised, “With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation” (Isaiah 12:3, NIV).
Train & Equip an Evangelist - YouTube
From deepest Africa across the Middle East to Southeast Asia , Samaritan’s Purse mobilizes faithful believers to proclaim the Good News by providing evangelistic training and tools ranging from Gospel films and video projectors to flipcharts and bullhorns. A gift of $35 can provide a month of Bible education, audio/visual equipment, or other resources to help reach “every tribe and tongue and people and nation” (Revelation 5:9, NKJV).
