Breaking the Cycle of Poverty

You can help provide communities and families with gifts that will help change their future!

Donate to Breaking the Cycle of Poverty

How often?

Every year, we distribute thousands of life-changing gifts to families in need as our National Missionaries journey from village to village. Income-generating gifts such as sewing machines and fishing nets can change a family’s life by breaking the cycle of poverty and giving their children a better future! Each gift is given in Jesus’ name, along with His love and compassion – this can have a huge impact on people’s lives.

What is the cycle of poverty?

So many people live in extreme poverty all of their lives and don’t have access to the provision they need to have a good quality of life for themselves or their children and so the cycle continues! Practical gifts like warm blankets and mosquito nets meet real life needs and help change the daily discomfort that so many have to struggle with.

You can be a part of making a difference today by donating towards breaking the cycle of poverty. Your gift could go towards:

Changing Lives Eternally

With national missionary sponsorship, we have the opportunity to change lives not only here and now, but eternally in Asia and Africa. Did you know that around 80,000 people die every day in the 10/40 Window? Some of their lives may end without ever hearing about the love of God. We can make a choice today that will forever change the fate of those who have yet to hear.

How can you help break the cycle of poverty?

Every year, we distribute thousands of life-saving gifts to families in need as our National Missionaries journey from village to village. Income-generating gifts such as sewing machines and fish nets can change a families life by breaking the cycles of poverty and giving their children a better future! 

Giving to this category, instead of an individual fund like Sewing Machines, means that National Missionaries have the freedom to use your donation on whatever will have the greatest impact! 

It takes as little as £10 to have a huge impact in breaking the cycle of poverty and bringing the kind of relief that Jesus brings through His love and provision.

We are able to do something because of (the church). With this gift, we both, husband and wife, are going to work hard. Now we are assured and have hope that we will be able to (provide for) our family in a far better way in the days to come.

There’s a common problem in GFA pastor Kagan’s area, one he is all too familiar with. Born and raised in the region where he now serves, Pastor Kagan knows the effects of malaria from personal experience, and he sees many others suffer from it, too. Whenever it appears, it often brings debilitation and anguish—and sometimes death.
