Our Journey
Since 2002, Relief Network Ministries, Inc. has been dedicated to improving the lives of those in need. Our mission began with a simple idea: every community deserves access to clean water and hope. Over the years, we have successfully drilled and rehabilitated some 1779 water wells, supported countless orphans and widows, and initiated workforce programs to empower individuals. Our commitment to compassionate service remains unwavering as we work towards a world where everyone can thrive with easy access to clean water, and compassionate assistance provided by some unknown and known good Samaritans who also believe that the needy shall not always forgotten nor their desires perish forever (Psalm 9:18). Thankfully, we have been empowered approved by both the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and recognized by Nigeria's CAC as a Non-Profit faith-based Charitable organization with those credentials available on the links above here.
