Support-A-Widow

Needy widows, widowers, and abandoned wives are some of the most vulnerable people in economically depressed areas. A donation of $59 provides them with a 35-pound parcel of food, a Christian family magazine, healthcare items, and $10 cash (or equivalent in other needed items). In 2021, supporters provided 21,888 parcels for recipients in Liberia, Haiti, Nicaragua, Romania, Moldova, Ukraine, India, the Middle East, and other places.
