And we also invite you to come and see your donations at work first-hand on one of our many Belize Mission Trips.

Feed-A-Child

International Servants feeds hundreds of needy children each day in our Feed-A-Child Program in Belize. 40 percent of children in our rural jungle villages are malnourished to the point of stunting their growth. We do much more than just feed the children. Each child also receives loving care from our staff as we provide worm medicine, children's vitamins, basic health care, school supplies and teach them about Jesus.

Our Belizean Feed-A-Child staff are all volunteers. 100 percent of gifts designated FEED-A-CHILD goes directly to the children. We need your help. Your gift of $12 can feed a hungry, malnourished child for a month. $100 can feed 9 children for almost a month.

God blessed you because He wants you to bless others.

Make a difference in the life of a precious child today.

International Servants provides free Medical Mission clinics in Belize, treating thousands of poor, needy children and families in remote jungle villages each year. Some have basic problems like fever or worms, and others have life threatening heart murmurs or diabetes.

The purpose of our Medical Mission is to open hearts to Christ, so we always setup our clinics in villages where our missionaries are starting a Church. It's a wonderful tool for showing the love of God.

Amanda Whisnant, CPNP, is our Belize Medical Director and leads our Belize Medical Mission Trips with volunteer MD's, DO's, PA's, NP's, Pharmacists and Pharmacy techs from the USA.

Adults

In our Belize Medical Mission Clinics, we often encounter children that need life-saving surgery. But many of these surgeries are too complicated to perform in Belize.

We bring children to the USA for these life-saving surgeries. We coordinate many of these surgeries with the assistance of others, such as Rotary, Children's Hospitals in the USA, US based Charities, etc. This requires a lot of work and fundraising on our part but it's very rewarding to save a precious life. Helping save a child's life also helps open many hearts to Christ in our villages.

We need your help. To help us save the next child's life, click GIVE and designate: Save-A-Child's Life. Your gift of any amount is deeply appreciated. 100 percent of gifts designated SAVE-A-CHILD'S LIFE goes directly to getting life-saving surgery for these precious children.
