Emmaus Investments firmly believes in the power of individuals to make a difference in the world. Therefore, each year
Emmaus Investments sets aside 10% of its profits for a matching fund to encourage our partners and investors to donate
to a select group of worthy charities. These charities represent a cross-section of organization types: some domestic
and others international, some with small budgets and others with large, some Christian and others not. The one thing
they all have in common is that they are well-run, effective, passionate, financially responsible and worthy of your
consideration. Moreover, for every dollar donated to one of the charities listed below by any of our partners or
investors, Emmaus Investments will match the donation dollar-for-dollar with up to10% of its annual profits. Please
take a moment to visit the web site of each of these worthy charities:
www.thesource4ym.com - a web site that provides continually updated,
cutting edge, quality resources to student and youth leaders of Christian organizations around the world. A dedicated
staff of writers, creative web developers, dynamic speakers/trainers and more than 200,000 visitors each month, make
The Source for Youth Ministries the most frequently traveled web site of its kind. Because there is never a cost for
anything on the web-site, this organization relies on your donations.
Note: Thomas A King currently
serves on the board of this charity.
www.empoweringlives.org - the people of this exciting, well-run
organization are dedicated to lifting up the people of lesser developed nations. With operations concentrated on the
continent of Africa, the work of Empowering Lives International is founded on the simple principle of giving people a
"hand-up" and not a "hand-out". They achieve this goal through a multi-pronged approach of education, economic
development, spiritual development and health-care. Empowering Lives International does not simply provide a band-aid
and then leave, they make long-term investments into the lives of the people they serve.
www.ramusa.org - When Remote Area Medicine first started making flights thirty
years ago into third world countries to deliver medical supplies, its founder did not dream he would one day be supplying
medical services to one of this world's most developed nations, The United States. Now, in addition to its continued
operations around the globe, RAM provides medical assistance to the uninsured and working poor of America. This incredibly
efficient organization has treated more than 350,000 patients at an average cost of less than $2 per patient! With donated
materials, a group of dedicated volunteers and thousands of small donations, RAM gets more work done than many companies
ten times their size.
