We help patients survive, recover, and build a future

We're a charitable Christian organization following our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to care for the sick and suffering in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Proclaims the Gospel Message

As patients walk through the darkest times of their lives, Jesus hears their prayers and understands their suffering. Faith Aid ministers to the spiritual needs of patients as they receive treatment for their physical ailments.

Provides Compassionate Care

Many Africans cannot afford the medical care they need to survive. Poverty leads to countless preventable deaths. Faith Aid helps impoverished patients access life-saving medical care at Christian mission hospitals in Africa.

Practices Christian Hospitality

Many Africans travel long distances for medical care, arriving as strangers in an unfamiliar place. Faith Aid welcomes patients and families through Mustard Seed House — providing shelter, meals, prayer, and the love of Christ.

Every patient has a story. Watch how your support is changing lives in Jesus' name.

"I was sick and you
looked after me."

— Matthew 25:36

We are passionate about helping the sick and suffering find abundant life in Christ. Jesus said, "I came that they may have life and have it abundantly." Faith Aid lives out that calling — one patient at a time.

Behind every suffering child is a family praying for a miracle.

We were welcomed by strangers who treated us like family. We had a place to eat, sleep, pray, and rest. We lacked nothing. We are going back to Congo full of testimonies.

They walked alongside us for months and paid for my son's treatment. I cannot even explain how much Faith Aid has been a blessing in our lives. Their support saved my son's life.

When I was first told that my son Barren had hydrocephalus and had to undergo a neurosurgery, I knew there was no way I could afford it. Faith Aid paid for Barren's surgery. Now my son is walking, talking, and recovering!
