Covenant World Relief

Established in 1946, Covenant World Relief has served as the international humanitarian aid and development arm of the ECC (in times of extreme need it also does USA domestic disaster response). Our charge is to assist the “poorest of the poor” by offering Relief, Rehabilitation, and Development.

Covenant World Relief is an effective, efficient, respected and flexible humanitarian aid ministry in Christ’s name, with a sixty year history. CWR works through local churches, collaborations, and partnerships. This increases local presence in service, controls and reduces overhead, empowers local ministry, and grants immediate response to disaster and human suffering.
