Emergency Response
Support ABM AID’s partners to quickly and effectively bring relief and hope when emergencies occur.
ABM AID’s Emergency Response Program prepares and resources our partners to respond quickly and effectively to emergencies affecting their local communities. Sadly, this Program is activated more frequently as both natural and conflict-driven humanitarian emergencies increase. Our Emergency Response Program is complemented by longer-term support of partners’ disaster preparedness among churches and communities.
To ensure ABM AID can financially support partners to respond quickly to emergencies, we are seeking contributions to a Rapid Response Fund. Depending on the size of the partner’s response, ABM AID may also raise a special appeal for further funds.
You can read more about the specific examples of ABM AID’s partners engaged in the Emergency Response Program by clicking on the link below.
Your gift enables us to immediately send funds when a partner seeks our support for their emergency response, facilitating their quick and effective action when emergencies occur, bringing relief and hope to more people.

Prayer
Jesus Christ, our Saviour in the storm, we give you thanks for the people and systems that ensure relief can come at times of crisis just when it is needed.
As both natural and conflict-driven humanitarian emergencies increase, we thank you for those forward-looking supporters who bless others unknown to them by giving funds to allow a rapid response to occur.
Hear this prayer for your Name’s sake.
Amen.
