Beyond Measure is Compassion International’s response to joining God in reaching the next million children living in poverty and strengthening the holistic care being provided to every child in Compassion’s programs.
In the coming years, we are committing $1.3 billion to reaching more children in need with hope, developing systems and strategies to maximize the impact on every child, and being prepared to effectively respond to emerging needs and opportunities no matter what the future brings.
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
EPHESIANS 3:20-21, NIV
170 million children
live on less than $3.65 per day in the 29 countries where Compassion currently serves.
With your help, we can reach 1 million more children through Beyond Measure.
Beyond Measure is about dreaming big and trusting God to do “immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine.” It’s a commitment to empower local churches more deeply to be the hands and feet of Jesus to vulnerable children. And it’s a powerful opportunity for donors like you to make a lasting Kingdom impact in the lives of those who need it most. Will you join us?”
