News and updates of how God is working through FAME and our ministry partners to send help and hope in the name of Christ to the world through medical evangelism.

Bringing Help and Hope to the World

by Bill Warren

It is hard to believe that we are near the end of 2016.  It seems like just a few days ago that this year began with great hopes and anticipation of what was to come.  Some of our hopes have been realized.  Some have not.  Every year, we experience victories and defeats; joys and disappointments.

At FAME, we are glad to report that, with God’s leading and your support, we have been able to bring hope in 2016 to some seemingly hopeless places and situations.  Like the leper colony in Cambodia that will now have a functioning clinic to serve their physical needs while at the same time bringing spiritual hope where it is so badly needed.  Or like the communities in war-torn South Sudan that are being transformed through the gospel and through health education and disease prevention.

The FAME Board of Directors recently approved several new projects for 2017 in India, Mexico, the Philippines, Haiti, Pakistan and Honduras.  We anticipate great advancement for the Kingdom as these projects move forward.  We want to bring hope!

Through donations to FAME, YOU are bringing help and hope to the world, in the name of Christ, through medical evangelism.  Thanks for your partnership in 2016.  We look forward to seeing what God will do through our partnerships around the world in 2017!

Making a Year End Donation

Contributions made to a charity by credit card are deductible as a charitable contribution in the year that the charge is made. Therefore, contributions made by credit cards that are processed by midnight on December 31 will be deductible for the tax year. Charges processed any time after that will be deductible for the new tax year. To make a charitable contribution to FAME with a credit card for 2016 please visit our FAME secure donation page.

Contributions made by check follow a so-called “delivered-when-mailed” rule. Under the “delivered when mailed” rule, if a taxpayer mails a check to a charity, the date of mailing is deemed the date of delivery. Normally, the date on a U.S. Mail postmark will conclusively establish the date of mailing.

Thank you for considering FAME in your year-end giving. Your donations do make a difference.
