The United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) is a
non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to alleviating human suffering around
the globe. UMCOR’s work includes programs and projects in disaster response,
health, sustainable agriculture, food security, relief supplies, and more.
UMCOR is a ministry of The United Methodist Church through
the General Board of Global Ministries, and their goal is to assist the
most vulnerable persons affected by crisis or chronic need without regard to
their race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. We believe all people have
God-given worth and dignity.
UMCOR’s work reaches people in more than 80 countries,
including the United States and provides humanitarian relief when war,
conflict, or natural disaster disrupt life to such an extent that communities
are unable to recover on their own.
UMCOR spends 100 percent of designated donations on the
projects their donors specify. When UMCOR donors give their time, money,
and supplies, they join UMCOR as the hands and feet of Christ.
