Why Ecuador?
Ecuador faces rising poverty and unprecedented violence, leaving many families in dire need. As of 2025, 28% of the population lives below the poverty line, and violent crime rates have surged, making Ecuador one of the most dangerous countries in Latin America.
In response to these challenges, we provide sustained support and Christian outreach, demonstrating that faith, love, and service can create lasting change.
About Us
At United Hands in Jesus Christ Foundation, we are committed to serving those in need through compassion, faith, and tangible support. As a U.S.-based nonprofit, our mission is to provide essential aid and spiritual guidance to individuals and families facing extreme poverty in Ecuador.
Every day, countless people in Ecuador struggle to meet their basic needs—many going without food, clean water, or hope for a better future. Through humanitarian aid, biblical teaching, and community development initiatives, we work to uplift the most vulnerable and share the transformative power of God’s love.
Our Mission
Rooted in the teachings of John 13:34-35, United Hands in Jesus Christ Foundation strives to serve, uplift, and transform lives through faith and action. Our work extends beyond providing physical aid—we aim to bring spiritual renewal and a message of hope to those in crisis.
