ABOUT US
Our Vision
World Renew envisions a world where people experience and extend Christ’s compassion and live together in hope as God’s community.
OUR STORY
At World Renew®, we join with the world’s families to change the story of hunger, poverty, and illness. For more than 60 years, hundreds of thousands of people have shared in this calling: staff, local partners, global communities, and people like you. Every day, people like you give in response to a disaster, offer monthly support to Free a Family® from poverty, or travel with our volunteer teams to help renew hope firsthand. Together, we change stories, and those stories change the world.
THE MISSION
Compelled by God’s deep passion for justice & mercy, we join communities around the world to renew hope, reconcile lives, and restore creation.
