Adopt-A-Family
Although communism collapsed in Eastern Europe more than 30 years ago, its effects can still be seen today. As the cost of living continues to rise in spite of low incomes, families wonder how they will survive. For the poorest of families in Romania, Moldova, and Ukraine, the Adopt-A-Family program has been a ray of hope. This program also reaches out to needy families in the Middle East and families in Nicaragua, the second poorest country in the western hemisphere. This program focuses on helping Christian families, but some parcels are distributed to unbelievers as a means of outreach. Sponsors provide $75 a month to send 50-pound parcels of food and healthcare items to those in need.
