Serving humanity so all may live as God intended.
ADRA International (the Adventist Development and Relief Agency) is a global humanitarian organization working in more than 118 countries to provide sustainable community development and disaster relief without regard to political or religious association.
Operating through a worldwide network of local ADRA offices, the agency focuses on food security, economic growth, primary health, water and sanitation, education, and emergency management, serving whoever is in need, wherever they are found.
ADRA emphasizes community-led development, training local leaders and partnering with residents to design projects that fit their own context rather than importing solutions from the outside.
When disaster strikes, ADRA's country offices and pre-positioned supplies allow the agency to respond quickly with food, clean water, shelter materials, and medical support, then stay engaged through the long recovery that follows.
Because ADRA maintains offices in so many countries, it can often respond to a crisis with staff and relationships already on the ground, rather than starting from scratch when headlines fade and other aid slows down.
That local presence also supports longer-term work: clean water systems, maternal and child health programs, school feeding, and livelihoods projects that continue long after the initial emergency response.
Your gift can help fund clean water systems, emergency relief supplies, and community development projects for people ADRA serves around the world.
