Empowering the Poor

Here are some special ways you can give to reach out to entire families in South Asia. You can bless entire families and give them a chance to hear about the redemptive love of Jesus through helping to provide essential needs from important resources like:
Hope for Suffering Women
Hope for Suffering Women

"Sewing" Seeds for Eternity with the Gift of a Sewing Machine

Many families work as labourers; sometimes having to sell their children just to earn enough money to support their family. A sewing machine provides a chance for a needy family to start their own tailoring business. Once they receive a sewing machine, they also have access to classes that allow them to start putting their new machines to good use.

Vocational Training
Vocational Training
Suggested donation: $75
In places like Sri Lanka and South India, where the 2004 tsunami displaced so many lives, and in teeming cities like Delhi and Mumbai, the ability to make a decent living often involves vocational training that is beyond the reach of the poor. As a further witness to the Gospel, GFA is teaming up with local churches to offer training in such practical fields as welding, sewing or other basic trades.
Mosquito Nets
Mosquito Nets
Suggested donation: $14
Malaria is transmitted through the bite of an infected mosquito. Mosquito nets save lives and offer a restful night’s sleep, free from the sting of disease-laden mosquitoes.
Blanket
Blanket
Suggested donation: $34
Most families in the impoverished areas in which GFA serves have little or no insulation or indoor heating. Those who sleep on the streets are even more exposed to the cold. Blankets provide comfort and protection and serve as tangible expressions of Christ’s love.
