Who We Are

Founded on Orthodox Christian teaching, OCE is dedicated to alleviate poverty, injustice, and human suffering. It is a US based charitable organization that has been in operation since 2008.
“For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing (Matthew 25:35-40”. )

Our Vision:

“To meet human needs in Christ’s name without discrimination.”

Our Short-term Mission:


To meet the needs of Eritreans who are victims of war, persecution, poverty, natural disasters, and famine regardless of their religion, region, ethnicity, and political affiliations. Eritreans make up the largest number of refugees in the world as a proportion to its population.
