Where Most Needed
This is the most flexible and responsive way to support our mission. Your gift goes wherever it is needed the most at any given time - whether that's field ministries, supporting missionaries, behind-the-scenes staff, or bringing disaster relief. By your generosity and trust, you are helping enable us to continue sharing Christ's love in word and deed across Africa and Asia and see communities transformed through Him.
Sponsorship
Through sponsorships you can be more involved in your giving and link your life with an individual missionary, child, or staff member. You will receive additional information about the individual you sponsor that will help you pray for them specifically. Learn more about how you can get involved by choosing one below.
Specific Gifts
Explore GFA World's vast array of specific ministries that help meet the needs of individuals and communities. By giving a one-time or recurring gift to one of these ministries, you help ensure that we can meet the needs for these items when they arise.
Non-Cash Giving
Donating appreciated non-cash assets—either full or partial interests—usually provides you with a greater tax deduction than if you sell the assets first and then donate the proceeds. It allows you to give more to the work of the Lord for less cost while maintaining your needed cash flow.
GFA World is dedicated to the most effective and efficient stewardship of resources, according to 1 Corinthians 3:12-14. Contributions to GFA are income tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law. All gift options represent GFA's actual ministry efforts to meet the diverse needs of individuals and communities. GFA World seeks to use contributions raised for a particular ministry in furtherance of that charitable objective, but retains control and discretion over all donated funds to further its overall charitable objectives.
Your gift towards chickens can help supplement a family’s income and get them on their feet financially. Hungry families can eat or sell the nutritious eggs, or they can hatch chicks to increase their flock and later have more eggs and chicks to sell. And every day, this gift can serve as a walking reminder that God sees them and He cares about them.
Cows, and the milk they produce, help families grow healthier and more financially secure. A cow’s milk can be consumed, adding nutrients to the family’s diet, or sold, adding to the family’s income. The cow’s manure serves as a fertilizer for farmers, resulting in a better harvest. As cows multiply, so does the financial benefit and the family’s hope.
Goats may or may not have been there to greet baby Jesus, but they sure are a great way to show His love to families in need. These animals provide meat and milk, and they can be sold for a good price. Increased income means more money for things like food and blankets, but it can also enable families to send their children to school, making a lasting difference in the fight against poverty.
These portly critters can bring powerful financial breakthroughs to needy families. Piglets fetch a good price at market, enabling families to buy the things they need, and adult pigs provide ample meat for selling or eating.
Water buffalo are powerful animals often used to plow fields. They produce milk for drinking or selling, and their dung can be used as fuel for cooking. Your gift towards a water buffalo could greatly improve a family’s financial situation!
Many families work as laborers; sometimes having to sell their children just to earn enough money to support their family. By providing a sewing machine to those in need, they now have a chance to start their own tailoring business. Once the sewing machine is given, classes are provided so people can start putting their new machines to good use.
Give a Family Hope for the FutureWith the funds provided by making and repairing clothes in their community, people who formerly had no hope can now send their children to school and provide for their family. Please provide a practical gift in Jesus’ name to those who need it most.
The behind-the-scenes missionaries in GFA’s administrative offices function as a key connection between ministry supporters in the West and on-the-ground national missionaries in Asia.
Your gift to the Behind-the-Scenes Missionaries Fund equips GFA personnel to continue their vital support of the field. Together, you will enable countless lives in Asia to be touched by the truth and kindness of God’s grace!
