SUSTAINABLE HEALTH THROUGH COMMUNITY CARE.
SCROLL
SERVING A WORLD IN NEED
CompassionLink is a team of dedicated consultants who partner with missionaries and national churches to create and restore healthy communities.
Here’s what makes us unique:
Sustainable
We educate trainers who train other community and church members, which makes our work self-sustaining and does not require our presence or support to continue.
Holistic
We care for the spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of individuals and communities. This helps strengthen the hands of a local church or establishes a church where one does not exist.
Strategic
We are part of a long-term strategy involving missionaries and the national church to reach a community. Along with the local community, we identify assets and needs, working together to develop solutions.
Empowering
We empower communities by celebrating their accomplishments and progress. We train and partner with them to encourage continued, holistic growth in all aspects of life.

WHAT WE DO
Community Development
Partnering with missionaries and local community members, we help identify the people and resources already in the community to develop solutions together. CompassionLink has a dedicated team of people who are willing to grow and acquire new skills as needed and who already specialize in the following fields:
- Care of the disabled
- Emotional care
- Improved agriculture
- Clean water technologies
- Micro-enterprise training
Health Initiatives
Acute health problems often contribute to poverty because they inhibit productivity and reduce capacity for quality living. CompassionLink can assist by:
- Partnering with local doctors to provide treatment
- Training medical personnel in foreign countries
- Providing limited medical care in areas without doctors
- Educating in proper sanitation methods
- Hosting disease-prevention classes
