Start a Mission

Do you see a community that needs hope? We would love to help you open a mission of your own, in any country.

A mission in every country

What began in Gonali can begin where you are

The Yahweh Mission started with one friendship and one village. Today we know that hope travels: wherever there is a child who cannot go to school, a family without enough food, or a community that has been forgotten, a local person who cares can start something lasting.

If that person is you, we would like to hear from you. We can share what we have learned about running schools, feeding programmes and child sponsorship with honesty and accountability, and help you think through what a mission could look like in your own community.

How it works

From first conversation to first child served

  1. Tell us your vision

    Share who you want to serve, where, and why. There is no wrong place to begin.

  2. Talk it through

    We meet with you online, listen, and help you understand the needs, costs and responsibilities.

  3. Plan together

    We shape a small, realistic first project, such as a school, a feeding day or a sponsorship group.

  4. Serve and report

    You serve with local leaders. We keep the work open with regular updates and honest reporting.

What we ask

The values every mission shares

Every mission we walk with agrees to the same simple commitments. They protect the children you serve, the people who give, and the name of the work.

  • Love without conditions

    We serve every person with dignity, whatever their religion, caste, creed or nationality.

  • Safe for children

    Every mission follows our safeguarding policy, with background checks and clear reporting.

  • Open books

    Money is handled with written controls, and donors always know how their gifts are used.

  • Local leadership

    Missions are led by people who live in the community they serve and know every family by name.

Good to know

We grow only when we can serve well

Each new mission is a serious commitment to children and families, so we take our time. Not every idea will be ready straight away, and we will be honest with you about that.

Starting small is not a failure. Most lasting work begins with one school day, one feeding day or one group of sponsors, done well and done openly.
