We first heard of CHOICE Humanitarian through my husband’s father, who had seen its work first-hand. What began as curiosity became six humanitarian expeditions in different parts of the world.
Each one followed the same quiet pattern: arrive as strangers, work alongside the village on what the village had chosen to build, and leave having received more than we gave.

Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren,
ye have done it unto me.
— Matthew 25:40 —
