Due to Covid restrictions and the loss of work, we provided emergency food supplies for 450 families.

We supported the Family Christian Fellowship as they made the arrangements to distribute the food. We built two homes for at-risk single moms and their children.RomaniaWe proceeded with the drilling of one well in a rural, poverty-stricken area that lack adequate clean water for the community. The well was completed and is not providing clean water for the community as well as enough water to supply water for two green houses and farm animals.MontanaWe provided financial support for emergency food help, rental assistance, emergency housing, utilities, gas and other emergency relief due to Covid related job loss or the loss of hours.
