Warm-A-Family
Needy people in Romania, Moldova, and Ukraine struggle to pay their heating bills or to buy fuel to heat their houses during the cold winter months. The Warm-A-Family program helps by providing stoves and/or funds to buy firewood and pay heating bills. This assistance usually goes to large families or to small or isolated churches that lack funds to heat their meeting places.
