Children’s Emergency Relief International (CERI) is a Christian health and human services organization that brings hope to children living in extreme poverty around the globe. The one-of-a-kind approach features professionally delivered social services, humanitarian aid campaigns, one-on-one child sponsorships and missions that address the material and spiritual needs of humanity. The goal for each child is a lifestyle of resiliency, determination, hope for the future and faith in God.

CERI is the international division of BCFS, a global system of non-profit organizations with expertise in health and human services. BCFS’ programs are dynamic and innovative ways of meeting the needs of at-risk populations in the United States and around the world.

CERI accomplishes its mission through indigenous staff and partnerships with local churches and faith-based organizations, in the countries targeted for intervention.  

CERI is supported through generous individual donations, one-on-one child sponsorships, church partners, matching gifts, and occasional grants.
