About World Help
World Help focuses on faith-based, evangelical humanitarian and community outreach projects, funding local churches, rescue/relief ministries, and international anti-trafficking and development work. Grants are overwhelmingly designated as project support and tend to support direct service delivery—disaster relief, food/feeding programs, church-led community missions, and child care/orphan support. The foundation favors U.S. congregations and ministry partners while also underwriting a handful of global relief/anti-trafficking projects.

About World Help
World Help’s recent grantmaking is shaped by large project grants to faith-based relief and community ministries, with the biggest award in the file going to Hearts with Hands for $402,559. The foundation also backed Dream Center Los Angeles with $135,948 and ParkView Community Mission in Lynchburg with two separate project grants, showing a steady preference for direct-service partners that operate through churches or ministry networks. Across the latest grants, support goes to food and feeding programs, disaster response, community rehabilitation, and international humanitarian work. The pattern is practical and ministry-oriented. Grants have gone to local churches such as Trinity Baptist Church, Shepherd Church, Gulf Coast Church, Christ Church Sierra Madre, and Community Church of Mount Pleasant, as well as to relief and outreach groups like God's Pit Crew, Unto, and Liberty Godparent Home. The project language attached to the awards aligns with the foundation’s focus on evangelical outreach, rescue and relief, and care for vulnerable populations. Recent awards also include work connected to child care, sponsored family support, and church-led service in urban neighborhoods and disaster-affected areas.
What World Help Funds
One clear theme is church-led community outreach. World Help gave $108,130 to Trinity Baptist Church for a project, $70,316 to Shepherd Church for a project, and $25,000 to Christ Church Sierra Madre for a project, indicating support for congregations running local ministries. A second theme is urban recovery and rehabilitation. The foundation awarded $135,948 to Dream Center Los Angeles and $46,546 to Agape Center, both in project support, aligning with drop-in services and community assistance. Disaster response is another recurring area. World Help granted $97,798 to God's Pit Crew and $30,000 to Gulf Coast Church, each on a project basis, reflecting support for emergency aid and recovery efforts. The foundation also supports care for children and family-related services. Liberty Godparent Home received $8,014 for a project, fitting its pattern of backing faith-based support services.
How World Help Gives
World Help’s typical grant size sits at $20,000 at the 25th percentile, $48,673 at the median, and $108,130 at the 75th percentile, so awards are often mid-sized but can reach well into six figures. The recent record is dominated by project grants, suggesting designated support rather than open-ended operating funding. A few recipients appear more than once, including ParkView Community Mission, which received two project grants in different years, and this points to some repeat relationships rather than one-time-only giving. The foundation is classified as a regular funder, not a DAF or PRI vehicle, and the dataset shows no individual grants.
