ENDING POVERTY TOGETHER

ABOUT US
We have worked since 1971 to serve the most vulnerable people on earth through purposeful relief and development. Our methodology is informed by our Christian beliefs that every person has intrinsic value and that it is our responsibility to advocate for the poor and the marginalized.
GIVE
We believe that when communities are trained and equipped to care for their most vulnerable, the entire community is lifted and poverty can be overcome. We serve communities through life-changing resources such as clean water, medical aid, food, equal educational opportunities to girls and boys, vocational training and empowerment in the midst of unimaginable hardships.
PARTNERSHIPS
The world is hungry, but the emptiness goes far beyond the table. The need is physical and spiritual. People hunger for opportunity, starve for resources, and have been stripped of value. These injustices keep us up at night.
NEWS & STORIES
FH has been serving those who are living through unimaginable hardships for fifty years and today, FH works in more than 20 countries around the world providing life-changing resources such as clean water, medical aid, food, education, vocational training, spiritual development and hope.
GET INVOLVED
We’re praising God for your willingness to answer the call and serve a child whom you’ve never even met. Your generosity means another child can grow up healthy and educated. We believe that when we equip a community to care for its most vulnerable members, we can serve everyone and see poverty eliminated.

ACTIVE EMERGENCY

Haiti Emergency Response

Decades of civil unrest, political upheaval, and extreme poverty in Haiti have recently plunged the island nation into a chaotic humanitarian catastrophe of unprecedented proportions.

Multiple government coups and the assassination of Haiti’s President in 2021 have created what many are calling a power vacuum — with thousands of families paying a heavy price.

Armed gangs have escalated attacks, forcing the most recent leader, Prime Minister Ariel Henry, resigned in April. This has led to a surge in violence rife with kidnappings and killings. The situation is desperate:

2.2 million people*

people urgently need food, clean water, fuel, and electricity

580,000*

people are internally displaced (more than half are children).

Half of the population (5.5.M)

is in need of humanitarian assistance

Thank God, our teams are already positioned on the ground to respond urgently to the disaster. But the number of people to whom we can rush food and other life-saving supplies depends on the generosity of caring friends like you. There isn’t a moment to lose: Please give generously right now to get emergency aid to children and families fighting for their lives in this unprecedented humanitarian disaster.

*Statistics verified by UN OCHA

Should funds raised for this effort exceed the budgeted need, remainders will be used in the best possible way to help communities challenged by poverty, injustice and marginalization. FH is accountable before God and you to use gifts wisely. As members of Excellence in Giving and the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability, we also abide by their strict reporting standards.
