Mission Statement
Our Mission: Transform the lives of children trapped in poverty through Christ-centered holistic care.
About This Cause
Forward Edge's child-focused, community development programs are located in Cuba, Haiti, Kenya, Mexico, Nicaragua, Ghana, Kosovo,and Uganda. Our goal for them is to help children trapped in poverty reach their full, God-given potential by meeting their basic needs (food, safe water, health care) and empowering them with quality education, vocational training, and spiritual discipleship. Through them, we also reach their families and communities to influence lasting change. We connect the global Church by integrating child-focused community development programs with short-term mission trips. Our model, which mixes missions and development, creates lasting transformation economically, socially and spiritually for children and communities suffering from extreme poverty, while also developing life-long disciples both in the States and abroad. Although our focus is on long-term community development, we do have a long history of mobilizing short-term missionaries to serve those devastated by a disaster. When a major disaster hits, and we’re presented with a strong local partner to assist in Phase II Disaster Recovery (recovery efforts after first responders have left), we mobilize volunteer teams to help. Our vision is to see people around the world overcome spiritual and material poverty through Jesus Christ.
