God’s love, transforming deepest need into thriving joy
Making a Real Impact

Caring for those in greatest need
Cross International was built on three foundational pillars of service: orphans and vulnerable children, children with disabilities, and crisis care. Our Thriving Kids Initiative supports thoughtful, accountable projects that help children, families, and whole communities thrive. In every aspect of our work, we share the love of God and the hope of the Gospel.

Education
School support, scholarships, and other projects deliver education—and better futures—to children living in poverty.
Housing
Housing ministries provide safe shelter for children and their families through construction and improvement projects.
Disaster Relief
Flexible emergency funding gives God’s love and immediate aid to disaster victims.

More than Numbers
Behind the statistics are the stories: Generous Christians who give compassionately. Dedicated pastors and ministry leaders who serve faithfully. Vulnerable children who have new hope for their futures. You can read some of these stories on our blog, dig into our financial reports, and learn more about how we track our data and measure our impact. We keep our administration and fundraising costs low (3.89% of all Program Services), so we can do the most good possible with the resources our donors entrust to us.
