Our Global Mission
We’re proud to have a huge impact not just in our city, but around the world.
Child Sponsorship
Part of our Global Mission is supporting children through Compassion International, a child-advocacy ministry that releases children from physical, spiritual, social, and economic poverty.

International Care and Support
In addition to the children we support, thanks to you, we’ve been able to provide the following:
Rescue for a child from a dangerous situation of abuse or violence.
A water well to give Compassion-assisted children and their families access to safe water.
A newborn care package of blankets, soaps, lotions, towels, and diapers for a new mother.
Emergency food, water, and shelter for times of crisis and loss following a disaster.
Medical care and counseling support for those suffering from HIV and AIDS.
Solar panels to provide a steady source of electricity for a Compassion center.
Copies of age-appropriate Bibles in native languages so children can grow in the faith.
Bicycles so that children have a safe, efficient way to attend school.
Livestock for a steady source of nutrition and to sell in the market.
Drought-resistant fruit and vegetable seeds and agricultural training for families living at extreme risk of famine.
Jobs training for parents of Compassion-assisted children so they can perform work in their communities.
Dental checkup, treatment, training, toothbrushes, and toothpaste.
We’re incredibly humbled by the opportunity to have such a global impact in these ways.
We’re impacting Gainesville, impacting Florida, and impacting the world. Everything we’re able to do is because of the people we work with – our clients and our team – and we’re really excited to partner with you to fulfill our Global Mission.
