Become a Chalmers Champion today.
Help bring practical economic development programs based on biblical principles to struggling communities so that all people are restored to flourishing participants in God’s kingdom.
You can’t fix material poverty overnight. True transformation requires long-term relational ministry.
For more than 20 years, The Chalmers Center has been leading the way to help God’s people around the world understand that poverty is more than a lack of material goods and creating effective programs to help them walk alongside their neighbors in material poverty in ways that lead to flourishing in the four key relationships with God, self, others, and creation.
We’re working to change the way Christians approach poverty alleviation, but we need YOUR help.

Will YOU become a Chalmers Champion?
We’re looking for monthly gift partners to help us reach new people with the principles of helping without hurting and train God’s people how they can walk alongside their neighbors in material poverty to help them experience restored relationships with God, self, other, and creation.
