Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Our mission is to aid, equip, and empower those in need around the world in the name of Jesus Christ so they might experience God's healing grace. We fulfill this mission through the following programs and ministries: Clean Water, Agriculture: Fighting Hunger, M.A.G.I. boxes (Making a Godly Impact), Women of Hope, Education, Disaster Recovery, and Medical Aid.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Provide relief services that reduce human suffering in the world. Provide clean drinking water through drilling water wells; collect, ship, and distribute, food, clothing, medical supplies and equipment; provide agriculture and education training and supplies.

  • DISASTER RELIEF ASSISTANCE. In 2024 HHI responded to disasters in Kenya, Brazil, Haiti, St. Vincent, Grenada, India, Uganda, Israel/Palestine, Zimbabwe, Malawi, and Turkey. This included shipping containers of food, providing food subsidies, helping rebuild houses and community centers, providing training, and providing temporary shelters. A drought in Eastern and Southern Africa created a critical need for food relief. Flooding in Brazil, Kenya, and India created needs for basic humanitarian supplies. Hurricane Beryl's destruction created needs in dozens of Caribbean communities. Previous disasters have shifted needs from aid to recovery efforts. A drought in East Africa and Southern Africa created a critical need for food relief. Containers of food and food subsidies were provided to many countries in Africa. WOMEN OF HOPE. Projects in many different countries are training, empowering, and aiding, women. Women receive training in basic business skills of budgeting, business planning and savings strategies. Revolving Loans and Savings Groups are making a huge impact.

    Expenses $1,767,532 · Revenue $608,378

  • WATER DEVELOPMENT - Providing clean drinking water to people in under-developed areas of the world. Water Development Initiatives in 2024: 231 new Water Wells were drilled in 16 countries; 39 broken water wells were repaired and returned to a status of fully functioning. WALK4WATER: 67 Walk4Water fundraising events were conducted in 23 states with over 5,550 registered participants. The events generated funds to sponsor 160 new water wells.

    Expenses $2,325,228 · Revenue $1,972,295

  • M.A.G.I - (Making A Godly Impact) Christians from 212 organizations across the United States pack gift boxes to be delivered to children in need around the world. The M.A.G.I Project distributed over 26,400 boxes to children in 10 countries: Zambia, Texas/Mexico border, Venezuela, Ukraine, Brazil, Honduras, Ecuador, Arizona (Navajo Reservation), Haiti, and Dominican Republic. "Sponsor a Box" provided funds for our in-country representatives to purchase products for M.A.G.I boxes locally, which supports the local economy and saves on shipping costs.

    Expenses $1,135,089 · Revenue $1,075,387

  • AGRICULTURE - Healing Hands International provides agricultural workshops around the world teaching communities around the world through local church leaders how to provide for their nutritional needs. Over the course of two days trainees are taught survival gardening techniques using drip irrigation, raised garden beds, composting and mulching, seed transplanting and basic garden management. The goal is to empower these individuals to provide for themselves; to offer a more long-term solution by giving them a hand up, instead of just giving them a hand out. In 2024, HHI trainers completed 477 workshops training 23,200 people. Since its inception in 2000, over 107,700 people have received training in basic sustainable gardening techniques.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
