FREE A FAMILY®
When you give a monthly gift to the Free A Family® program, World Renew partners with local churches and nonprofits to free families from the grip of poverty. That means your generosity not only touches a life, it helps transform an entire community.
CAN I MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
$27 a month can help equip a community with the resources needed so one more family can join World Renew’s programming, and a commitment to give $45 will offer even more support to a family as inflation exacerbates food insecurity around the world. You bring hope to these families through:
-
Providing sustainable farming education and tools
-
Improving access to community health support
-
Establishing a Village Loan and Savings programme to set aside earnings
-
Growing gender equity, reconciliation, nonviolence, or trauma healing (depending on community context and needs) through peace and justice curriculum
In addition, your gift allows World Renew to bring disaster response, recovery, and resilience supplies to those families touched by war or natural disaster.
You can join this story of change today. As a thank you, World Renew will start sending you our quarterly issue of Family-to-Family Magazine, keeping you connected with some of the inspiring families whom you come alongside everyday.

Featured Free A Family Story:
Yuri | Mother & Trauma Healing Facilitator | Honduras
Through the Free A Family program families are equipped with the training and tools they need to forgive the past and look to the future with hope. Yuri participated in trauma healing workshops that helped her forgive her ailing stepfather, who she now cares for. She says, “If I hadn’t healed my heart in the workshops, I wouldn’t be taking care of my stepfather, after so many years of abuse. But God heals my heart and now I can take care of him with love, as if he were my own father.” Trauma healing also helped Yuri to grow in confidence and, after going through the necessary training and certification, this mother of four now helps support her family, facilitating trauma healing workshops. Give to Free A Family and you can follow the stories of families like Yuri’s.
Your gift of $27 or $45 a month builds program capacity for another family to join World Renew’s programming and begin the journey out of poverty. Through you, World Renew comes alongside that family as they holistically change their story and find hope and opportunity for their children. Thank you for journeying with the families of the world. If giving annually works best for you, the amounts are $324 and $540.
