Programs and results
What we aim to solve
How do you define health? Is it simply the absence of disease or is it something more? Within Agape, we believe health to be something more – that to be truly healthy, we must not only nurture and care for the physical, but also for the mental, the social, and the spiritual aspects of those we serve. Since 1993, AGAPE’s work can be summarized with four simple words: Going – where no one wants to go; Helping – those no one cares about; Sharing – God’s Love with everyone; and Teaching – others to do the same. Through these four words, Agape seeks to promote all aspects of health, particularly to the least among us. Agape always partners with like-minded local health care providers and organizations . In this way, the work continues after we leave.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Focusing on the former Soviet Union since 1993, AGAPE seeks to promote all aspects of health and to show God's AGAPE love by providing medical assistance to those who have little or no access to medical care. Agape always partners with likeminded local health care providers and churches. In this way, the work continues after we leave. The inevitable question always comes up, “Why do you do this?" When people ask, this is the perfect opportunity to tell them about God's greatest gift, Jesus Christ, and because we have demonstrated God's AGAPE love through medical care, they listen and often want to know more.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Strategically, we are working to accomplish our mission through four areas: Outreach to directly care for those in need, Medical Education to train a new generation to continue the ministry, Medical Clinics which provide the foundation for our outreach, and our Agape Farm as a retreat center to focus more upon training.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Our medical clinic provides the infrastructure for our outreach efforts and work in medical education. With the clinic, we are able to send out local doctors into the community to reach the homeless and immigrant communities as well as others who have few resources for obtaining medical care. Also, the clinic gives us the ability to train new doctors from the medical schools and teaching hospitals in our community.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We have opened an independent, self sustaining clinic that provides the foundation for our outreach efforts. We have also begun a farm that functions as a training center. We are working to make the farm self- sustaining through the crops grown and program fees.
We have a desire to open more clinics in surrounding communities as well as grow a larger network of likeminded health care providers.
