Why We Exist

Vision - Every human worldwide with access to essential resources necessary for survival.

Purpose - To promote holistic peace and hope in individuals and nations.

Mission - To combat and eradicate preventable physical suffering globally by providing essential goods to those lacking resources, ensuring their survival in times of scarcity. Our objectives include:

1. Provide a present and eternal hope by sharing the Gospel of Christ through spoken word and service.

2. Provide both immediate and longer-term sustainable food and water solutions. 

3. Supply medical goods to partner organizations, and when necessary, personnel that deliver life-saving care.

4. Advocate with governments for peaceful living conditions for all affected by their policies.

​

Approach 

1. Partnership: We support trusted and vetted mission-focused Christian organizations by providing supplies or the funds to purchase supplies locally. These organizations employ certified and competent local residents in their areas of operation, paying them in accordance with the local cost of living. These employees are fluent in the language and culture, reducing the need for extensive training. By covering these partner organizations' medical, food, and water expenses, we help them create more jobs and serve more people in their communities. 

2. Transparency: Amity is committed to complete openness regarding every dollar spent, providing donors with direct insight into the impact of their contributions. We maintain two separate accounts for receiving funds: one for direct overseas assistance, ensuring 100% of these funds go toward the cause, and another for overhead expenses, covering fundraising costs, subscriptions, and wages necessary for Amity's functioning.

​

Problem

• Hunger: According to the UN's 2023 findings, 258 million individuals are afflicted with acute food insecurity, defined as a situation where a person's inability to access adequate food puts their lives or livelihoods in immediate danger. This figure has been steadily increasing since 2019. Factors such as war, economic downturn, political instability, drought, and famine all contribute to the impact on food supplies.

• Thirst: According to the UN, 703 million people worldwide lack access to basic clean water. Contaminated water leads to disease and loss of life. 

• Medical: Injuries, neonatal and maternal mortality, epidemics like AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria, as well as communicable diseases such as hepatitis and waterborne illnesses. 

​

Solution 

• Hunger: When addressing immediate needs, we prioritize food distribution. For those not currently experiencing severe food insecurity within our sphere of influence, we provide sustainable food solutions, such as microfinance for fertilizers and seeds.

• Thirst: In areas of clean water unavailability, Amity will finance trusted and competent partners to dig wells and create freshwater resources for local populations.

• Medical: Amity will finance the acquisition of medical treatments that can be used by partner organization staff. Amity aims to provide a focused response to childbirth, injuries, and communicable diseases.
