Choose a Missionary to Sponsor
GFA World's national missionaries live sacrificially to bring the hope of Christ to those who've never heard His name. This Christmas, your sponsorship covers a missionary's living and ministry expenses, standing with them as they share God's love with the least of these.
Support a Missionary with a One Time Gift
You’ll still receive a missionary packet so you can pray for and celebrate the work being done. If you desire to give a one-time gift of $540 a year, or become a monthly partner for just $45/month information will be included in the packet.

Alleviate
Poverty
Many families in the places we serve live under crushing generational poverty, with no means of escape. These families can experience a deep life-change from something as simple as chickens, goats, pigs or a water buffalo. GFA World brings help, relief and income-generating gifts to those who need it most.
Chickens
Suggested gift: $15 per pair
Your gift toward chickens can help supplement a family’s income and help them get on their feet financially. Families can eat or sell their nutritious eggs, or hatch chicks to increase their flock and later have more eggs and chicks to sell.
Join the “Chicken Challenge” and donate a pair of chickens each month for a full year! Through this challenge, you are helping 12 different families to grow their income.
Goats
Suggested gift: $170 per pair
Your goat gift can rapidly improve a family’s finances. For one family, a pair of goats multiplied into a farm with more than 75 goats to milk or sell. The father built a house and sent his children to school, giving them a better future than he had growing up and fresh hope.
Can you imagine having a new goat farm every month? Join GFA World in a monthly partnership to provide goats throughout the year.
Junior Barnyard Bundle
Suggested gift: $195
Bundling up two pairs of chickens, a pair of pigs and a lamb is an easy—and super cute—way to share the grace of God with several families in need. Package Includes: Four Chickens, Two Pigs, and One Goat
Give a monthly bundle and bring God’s grace to those in need throughout the year.
Pigs
Suggested gift: $80 per pair
These portly critters provide financial independence to many needy families. Piglets fetch a good price at market, which enables families to meet their needs. Adult pigs can provide ample substance for sales or consumption.
Be part of providing financial independence by purchasing a pair of pigs every month.
Water Buffalo
Suggested gift: $460
Water buffalo are strong animals used to plow fields. They produce milk for drinking or selling, and their dung can be used as fuel for cooking. Your gift toward a water buffalo could greatly improve a family’s finances!
Donate any amount towards a water buffalo throughout the year to help those in need.
“We just love to give practical, real gifts that keep giving throughout the year. … My boys know how much animals give food and what a gift it is to not go hungry. … We’re thankful we can give a little of what we have to those who don’t have. It teaches my boys a legacy to continue to do the same throughout their lifetime.”
Empowering
Women
Women, especially widows, in Africa and Asia often bear pain and poverty with few ways to provide. Literacy classes and vocational training empower women to earn a sustainable income and climb out of the poverty that entrenches them, while care for widows offers food, shelter, dignity and the love of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Vocational Training
Suggested gift: $75
Vocational training classes equip people for occupations such as tailoring or candle making. The classes can help people get better jobs so they can break out of the cycle of poverty and provide better lives for themselves and their children.
Give monthly toward vocational training so women can keep learning skills that lift their families.
Widows
Suggested gift: $75
Alone and unprotected, widows and abandoned children face immense practical and emotional hardships. But the Body of Christ can offer support and hope. When you give to help widows and abandoned children, you can provide them with things like food, shelter, income-generating gifts, dignity and God’s compassion.
Walk with widows throughout the year through a monthly gift of compassion and practical help.
Women’s Literacy
Suggested gift: $25
When women learn to read, they can avoid harmful labor contracts, understand warning labels and even avoid being cheated at the marketplace. GFA World supports literacy classes that teach women how to read and write. After they graduate, they’re also able to read God’s Word and grow in their relationship with Him.
Give monthly so more women can learn to read—and to read God’s Word—for the first time.
“When I was able to read by myself for the first time, I felt very excited, as if I were the only person in the world who could read. Praise the Lord! I can read and write. I wanted to read more, and I am thankful to Women’s Fellowship for helping me to read and write.”
Help Children
at Risk
Abandoned children face extremely difficult conditions. On their own, they search for food in waste dumps and make their homes with trash and rubble. GFA World’s Child Sponsorship Program gives unsponsored children a daily meal, education and medical checkups, and your gift can also provide food, shelter and protection for children living on the streets.
Abandoned/ Street Children
Suggested gift: $75
Abandoned children face extremely difficult conditions. On their own, they search for food in waste dumps and make their homes with trash and rubble. Your gift can provide food, shelter, protection and the compassion of Christ to those overlooked by others.
A monthly gift can keep providing food, shelter and protection for children living on the streets.
Unsponsored Children
Suggested gift: $35
GFA’s Child Sponsorship Program gives needy children a daily meal and regular medical checkups for their physical health and development. The program also helps children with their education, making sure they can succeed long after they graduate.
Give monthly so unsponsored children can receive meals, medical care and the chance to stay in school.
“Their eyes sparkle with joy because they feel loved and secure. … Each child knew he or she was treasured and special, but more importantly, they now know how much they mean to Jesus.”
Transform
Communities
Jesus Wells, Holy Scriptures and medical ministry bring clean water, God’s Word and healing care—practical expressions of Christ’s love that change lives and communities.
Provide
Clean Water
Outside of love, water may be the most critical and basic human need. But millions go without access to clean water. A Jesus Well brings fresh water year-round, protecting communities from waterborne illness and sparing women and children hours walking for water, while pastors share about the Living Water.
Jesus Well
Suggested gift: $1,600 for an entire community
$320 for 10 families
$32 for a family*
Jesus Wells bring fresh water year-round, protecting communities from waterborne illness and improving hygiene. They spare women and children hours walking, while pastors share about the Living Water.
Clean water is a practical gift that transforms communities. With a monthly gift of any amount, you can help provide a full well for a year and bring clean water to all.
“Now I don’t have to waste my time because the water is right in front of our house. … I can spend time in studies, and I don’t have to wait my turn collecting water. … [This] Jesus Well is really going to solve my problem.”
“I believe that God will do a miracle, that through this Jesus Well many people will come and glorify His name.”
Share
Holy Scriptures
National missionaries are the cornerstone for bringing the love of Christ to those who’ve not yet heard. Through their sacrifice and dedication, those once hopeless are finding life through Christ. A gift of Holy Scriptures helps first-generation believers grow in God’s Word and share the opportunity to believe and follow Jesus.
Holy Scriptures
Suggested gift: $10
Many Christians we serve are first-generation believers who grew up knowing nothing of God but are now hungry for His Word. Help meet their need for God’s word, by providing Scriptures in their language.
Think of a Scripture passage that brought you comfort and peace in a dark time of your life. For $100 a month you can help bring comfort and peace to individuals, their families, neighbors, and even whole communities.
"For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return there without watering the earth and making it produce and sprout … so will My word be which goes out of My mouth; it will not return to Me empty … without succeeding in the purpose for which I sent it."
Provide
Medical Ministry
Your gift towards medical ministry can help provide free medical care and health education to people suffering from treatable ailments. Through medical camps, families lacking hygiene or medication receive lifesaving treatment in the name of the Great Physician, Jesus Christ.
Medical Ministry
Suggested gift: $375 / $40*
Through medical ministry, families that lack access to medication or have never been taught basic hygiene can receive life-saving treatment and health education, all in the name of the Great Physician: Jesus Christ.
A monthly gift of $40 shares the cost of medical ministry and brings healing in Jesus’ name.
“It’s not only verbally we are expressing the love of Christ, but also through conducting this free medical camp, we are able to serve the people and tell them that this is what Jesus would do if He were here.”
Protect
& Provide
Simple gifts can guard a night’s sleep and open a door to income. Mosquito nets protect families from malaria, and sewing machines help women build a livelihood with dignity.
Mosquito Nets
Suggested gift: $10
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.
Protect families with monthly gifts toward mosquito nets. Impact can be the difference between life and death.
Sewing Machine
Suggested gift: $100
Many impoverished women lack education, limiting their job options. If widowed or unsupported, they may struggle to provide. A sewing machine can help her build a business and support her family.
Give $35/month to fund a quarterly sewing machine; $100 triples your gift!
“My husband passed away six months ago, and I started working in others’ houses to feed my five children. It was so difficult for me to sustain the family, but now I can use this sewing machine for stitching clothes and earn some more money to sustain the family. God is our provider.”
