| Respond with compassion to global emergencies with essential supplies that relieve misery and hunger. |
Many AGI agency partners are in the field and on the front lines soon after disaster strikes and refugees flee the strife of war. These agencies serve as the eyes and ears for AGI and its donors. They know the real needs in each catastrophe, often more than the media can discover. Agency workers and volunteers often work in life-threatening and unhealthy situations, providing relief and hope to people of every age.
Since 1986, AGI and its donors have provided compassionate humanitarian support for agencies and people in crisis. Urgent needs of shelter, food, medical supplies, water, counseling and support to rebuild lives are always needed. Refugees, children and the elderly – the most vulnerable – are given priority. Donors’ gifts are distributed to nonprofit relief agencies several times throughout the year.
In the last fiscal year, AGI sent much-needed aid to help Sudanese refugees, a U.S. community in the midwest destroyed by a tornado, starving people in North Korea, communities devastated by South American earthquakes, and hurricane victims in Central America and Haiti.
