Your donation designs and builds projects that bring hope to communities around the world.
Over 4.5 billion people lack access to essential health services (World Health Organization). More than 1.8 billion people worldwide do not have adequate housing. Over 200 million children are out of school globally (UNESCO).
And billions do not know Christ.
But design changes that.
Design bridges the gap into thousands of areas of need across the globe and it bridges the gap between what a ministry is doing to what it can do.
In 2022, Church of the Holy Spirit in Cape Town, South Africa went from a dwelling and barn with scattered wooden huts to a 2-story welcoming building with significantly increased capacity. Today, it provides showers and beds for the homeless, a class for new moms, a space to host Alpha, and a kitchen to simply provide a warm meal. These programs are just a handful of those that have been developed thanks to their new space.
In 2021, Agape International Missions in Phnom Pehn, Cambodia went from a scattered primary school, made up of rented and repurposed buildings spread across the community, to a 4-story building with over 80 rooms and more than doubled capacity. Today, the AIM primary school provides education that gives children value in the eyes of a community ravaged by human trafficking. It instills confidence and self-worth to each child, and provides a beautiful space where future leaders of this community can learn they are children of God.
In 2020, the Gem Foundation went from caring for over 40 children with severe special needs in a cramped 3-story building in Kampala, Uganda to moving into the Gem Village on 88-acres of land with 4 homes, admin buildings, and as of 2024, a fully accessible playground. Today the Gem Village is a peaceful, restorative space where orphaned, abandoned, and neglected children with special needs are cared for and loved in a beautiful place.
Because of you, lives are being changed across the globe.
Since 1982, with your help, we've completed 2,249 projects in 115 countries that are directly addressing these global needs.
But there is still so much to accomplish.
Every year we are forced to turn away ministry partners who need our help because we don't have the capacity to serve them, and we need your help to change that.
This year, we invite you to bridge the gap through an end of year donation.
Your gift bridges the gap in our heavily discounted design fee to ministries. It bridges the gap in providing competitive salaries for local design professionals and it ultimately bridges the gap from brokenness to wholeness as we strive to bring hope to communities around the world, together.
