Health & Sanitation
Diabetes. Respiratory illness. Heart Disease. For people around the world, these are some of the leading causes of death. And they are entirely preventable. That’s why our Health and Sanitation programs provide communities with training, education, and support to lower the risks posed by these preventable diseases and illnesses.
In Nigeria, where the life expectancy is just 53 years old, a group of dedicated volunteers are making an impact by bringing basic medical care and education to people in need.
Throughout rural Indonesia, access to medical care is a challenge. Our Health Education and Illness Prevention program brings health trainings to communities so they can take steps to prevent health issues before they happen.
On the White Mountain Apache reservation in Arizona, garden-based learning makes nutrient-rich produce readily available to families. Working together as a team teaches children the value of cooperation, teamwork, and hard work which benefits their emotional health.
7,000+ people served by our health and sanitation ministry.
In Indonesia, 73% of participants made a change in their life because of something learned at our workshop.
80% of participants in our Apache Reservation community garden agreed their faith grew because of the program.

Over the past three decades, war, famine, and natural disasters have uprooted more than 200,000 people and forced them to relocate here, to a wind-swept desert, a place that means “nowhere” in the native language.
