Here are some organizations working hard at meeting needs both locally and abroad. May they inspire, engage, and transform our hearts towards action.
Invisible Children:
We are storytellers. We are visionaries, humanitarians, artists, and entrepreneurs. We are individuals part of a generation eager for change and willing to pursue it.
As a non-profit we work to transform apathy into activism. By documenting the lives of those living in regions of conflict and injustice, we hope to educate and inspire individuals in the Western world to use their unique voice for change. Our media creates an opportunity for people to become part of a grassroots movement that intelligently responds to what.s happening in the world.
But our work extends beyond our borders. In war-affected regions we focus on long-term development, working directly with individuals and institutions that are eager to realize their full potential. Through education and innovative economic opportunities, we partner with affected communities and strive to improve the quality of life for individuals living in conflict and post-conflict regions.
The Mentoring Project:
The Mentoring Project seeks to respond to the American crisis of fatherlessness by inspiring and equipping faith communities to mentor fatherless boys.
The Fatherless:
The church can solve the problem of the fatherless. But it starts with exposing and educating those around you to the need. We want to see artists, church leaders, business professionals, nonprofit chairman, writers and entrepreneurs within the Q community take on this issue. We have put together a plan with resources you can leverage to create awareness towards this important issue. Will your organization/church commit to spending 3-minutes a month over the next 12-months to leverage your platform for this cause?
Micah Challenge:
Micah Challenge seeks transformational change in society, through the active involvement of the church with the poor and against the injustices of poverty. It seeks to sensitize and engage Christians into greater political and practical involvement with the issues relating to poverty by highlighting biblical truths which prompt a compassion of heart and quickness of the hands and feet. It will also enable Christians to pray, take action, speak out and engage with the issues surrounding poverty, here in the US as well as overseas.
