World Vision – in it for the long haul

In case you’re still wondering of which relief organization to donate, prayerfully consider World Vision. Here’s an article that mentions how they’ve received more donation in one day then they’ve received all of 2003. They’ve also set a $50 Million goal for the South Asia disaster. WorldVision International President, Dean R. Hirsch said the following regarding the relief effort:

“We have been in these countries for more than four decades,” said Hirsch. “We will stay in these stricken communities as long as it takes to help people rebuild their lives. This is a marathon, not a sprint.”

I commend World Vision’s ministry to these people and their commitment to be in it for the long haul.
