Overview
For the ones neglected, the ones forgotten, the ones in need, we must step up. The need for foster and adoptive families in North America, along with programs to care for vulnerable children overseas, has never been greater. At Send Relief, we truly believe in the words of James 1:27—’Religion that is pure and undefiled before God is this: to care for orphans and widows in their affliction.’
At the heart of this ministry is compassion for vulnerable families. Often, lives are touched by drug and alcohol use, abuse, neglect, disease and poverty. Our goal is to demonstrate Christ’s unconditional love to at-risk children all over the world and help foster and adoptive families as they become the hands, feet and voice of Jesus.
You can help meet needs by providing meals, clothes and skills training to these families. Additionally, if you’re interested in becoming a foster or adopted parent, we can connect you with others on the same journey and provide resources to help you get started in that ministry.
