Push Back the Tide of Hunger With an "Offering of Compassion"

Every 7 seconds a child dies from hunger-related causes. And the current global food crisis is forcing millions of additional children and families in the developing world to face the grim reality of this statistic. Compassion currently works with more than 4,600 church partners in the developing world. These partners are responding to the global food crisis with the love of Jesus Christ by providing food to children and their families. The churches, children and families desperately need your help.

How your church can participate in an "Offering of Compassion":

Four easy steps:

  1. Download the Offering of Compassion video and share the video with your congregation. 
  2. Take up a special offering at your church to help fight the global food crisis.
  3. On the check's memo line, write "Global Food Crisis." 
  4. Send your church's gift, accompanied by this downloadable donation form, to:

Compassion International
