Supporting development in Mongolia

The work ADRA * is doing in Mongolia is exciting, including a business component, and I wanted to share it here. Not quite kingdom business, at least not explicitly, but certainly kingdom work. Enjoy!

*The Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) was initiated by the Seventh-day Adventist church. The basis for its existence, its reason for being, is to follow Christ’s example by being a voice for, serving, and partnering with those in need.

ADRA seeks to identify and address social injustice and deprivation in developing countries. The agency’s work seeks to improve the quality of life of those in need. ADRA invests in the potential of these individuals through community development initiatives targeting Food Security, Economic Development, Primary Health and Basic Education. ADRA’s emergency management initiatives provide aid to disaster survivors.

The Adventist Development and Relief Agency Canada (ADRA Canada) is an independent humanitarian agency established by the Seventh-day Adventist Church whose mission is to empower the poor around the world and in Canada with the resources, skills and opportunities to live a better life with dignity and hope. Our vision is to achieve a world without poverty.
