Why Give to More Than Welcome
Give with Eternal Impact
More Than Welcome is made possible through the generosity of individuals, families, churches, and community partners who share our heart for welcoming refugees and asylum seekers. Because of their support, we’re able to provide long-term, holistic care that meets practical needs while building meaningful, lasting relationships with beautiful families from all over the world.
Everything we do is rooted in the love of Christ. We seek to serve with compassion, share hope, and restore dignity as we walk alongside families on their journey toward belonging and flourishing.

“We have chosen to jump into the More Than Welcome (MTW) mission both financially and in service. We know that we are to be faithful stewards of God’s resources, and we believe wholeheartedly in the people He has brought together under the MTW banner, their tremendous talents and heart for service, combined with an exceptional commitment to financial integrity and transparency. The closer we get to the organization, the more it’s clear God’s divine hand is embedded in the hearts and souls of the fine people diligently carrying out God’s call to share His love through service and care for the sojourner.”

Stories from Supporters
Why I Give
“We see financial giving as an opportunity to obediently and generously steward what God has entrusted to us. Though we haven’t always had the time to serve on the ground, our faith calls us to love the lowly, the least, and the foreigner. We trust More Than Welcome, knowing that this financial support makes a real difference in the organization and provides refugees and asylum seekers with the dignity and care they deserve.”
— Current More Than Welcome donor
“We want our church to be a place where our faith shows up in the way we love and serve people. Supporting More Than Welcome is one of the ways we can do that. We’ve seen how their ministry comes alongside refugees and asylum seekers with real, practical care, and we’re grateful to be part of that work. For us, it’s about being faithful to what God has called us to do and helping people feel welcomed, seen, and loved.”
