Cross International is a 501(c)(3) Christian relief and development organization that provides food, shelter, medical care, water, education, self-help programs, care for orphans and emergency relief to the poorest of the poor around the world in the name of Jesus Christ.
They collaborate with dedicated Christian ministry partners who employ a community-minded strategy and who strive to increase the self-sufficiency of the poor. With their larger, more advanced partners, they provide not only financial and material resources, but also help with monitoring and evaluation, impact reporting, and financial accountability. They, in turn, open doors in the community and help ensure they can reach families with the greatest needs.
Regardless of their church partner’s size or complexity, they remain dedicated to serving the Lord and acting as good stewards of His resources. By working in partnership with existing church-based ministries and other faith-based Christian organizations, Cross International has developed an extremely cost-effective network for distributing food and other resources where they are needed most.
Cross International also considers sharing the Gospel a priority and they strive to serve others with humility for the glory of God. Everything they provide is given in the name of Jesus, and they believe a strong, personal relationship with Christ is essential to the ultimate well-being of the poor. Their Lord is the only source of spiritual transformation and is the key to salvation and the blessings of eternal life.
By mobilizing compassionate Christians to join their cause, they work to expand their outreaches to the poorest of the poor around the world, rescuing all who are lost and comforting all who suffer.
