MISSION INFORMATION
United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR)
As the humanitarian relief and development arm of The United Methodist Church, the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) assists United Methodists and churches to become involved globally in direct ministry to persons in need. UMCOR comes alongside those who suffer from natural or human-caused disasters – famine, hurricane, war, flood, fire or other events – to alleviate suffering and serve as a source of help and hope for the vulnerable. UMCOR provides relief, response and long-term recovery grants when events overwhelm a community’s ability to recover on their own. UMCOR also provides technical support and training for partners to address emerging and ongoing issues related to disaster relief, recovery, and long-term health and development.
UMCOR currently has response efforts in place to provide aid and assistance to the people of Ukraine; to alleviate suffering caused by hurricanes and other natural disasters within the United States and its territories; and to provide support to displaced persons as well as refugees fleeing disasters (both natural and human-caused) around the globe.
