Humanitarian Aid

Matthew 25: Ministries helps 11 million people around the world each year and sends more than 10 million pounds of aid to the poorest of the poor.

Matthew 25: Ministries receives donated products from corporations, organizations, and individuals. With the help of our volunteers, M25M evaluates, categorizes, sorts, and processes these items before shipping them to recipient locations. These steps ensure that the products meet social, legal, and cultural requirements of the area.

In order to reach as many people as possible and keep overhead costs at a minimum, Matthew 25: Ministries partners with non-profit organizations in the recipient location. Through these relationships we ensure that donated goods are shipped to places with true need and distributed by people who are familiar with the area.

Matthew 25: Ministries works with more than 20 organizations in the Greater Cincinnati area, groups throughout the United States including Appalachia and the American Indians, and in over 35 countries worldwide.

More than 99% of Matthew 25: Ministries' cash and in-kind donations go toward programs. In 2009, for every $1 donated, Matthew 25 delivered $128 worth of humanitarian aid.
