Since the fall of communism, the nations which made up the Soviet Union have endured ongoing economic hardship brought on by the ingrained inefficiencies of the communist system.
Poverty is widespread, and millions of families struggle to simply survive.
SGA is committed to helping the Bible-preaching churches we serve reach out to these families and individuals. Our mission's partners, along with many churches, charitable foundations and concerned corporations, enable SGA to send tons of aid annually for distribution through evangelical churches. The aid can include clothing, shoes, boots, linens, medical supplies and equipment, dental supplies and equipment, personal care items, vitamins and food. Food aid has become increasingly important during the past couple of years due to drought and insect infestations which have resulted in poor harvests. Through gifts to SGA, food packages can be provided to needy families through evangelical churches in their regions.
