"Eleos" is a new testament Greek word, meaning compassion or mercy. In one example, the bible uses this word when Jesus was talking about the good samaritan (Luke 10:36-37 NIV): "which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?" The expert in the law replied, "the one who had mercy [Eleos] on him. "Jesus told him, "go and do likewise. " Each year we have sent teams of volunteers on short-term medical missions. Under his blessings, we have treated people of all ages, races and religions with over 4100 patients and preached the gospel to over 9000 people, in Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, Ethiopia, Haiti, Mexico, Peru and El Salvador.

Marc Gold, the founder of the 100 Friends Project, is a philanthropic traveler who aims to provide assistance to some of the most needy people in the poorest parts of the world who are lacking in medical, educational and financial resources. The organization improves these people's quality of life in a number of ways. Sometimes the help comes in the form of financial assistance. Usually this would be a one-time donation but sometimes this can be followed up with further payments. In some circumstances, donations can consist of blankets, medications, food, and other practical everyday items that can significantly improve people's standard of living. The 100 Friends Project has helped people living in poverty and deprivation to set up businesses of their own, get off the streets and into safe housing, benefit from an education, access vaccinations and medical care and brings people hope and the chance of a future. The project also proves what an important and significant difference can be made with very small amounts of money and resources, when it is distributed directly into the hands of those whose needs are the greatest.
The Living Water Project is an effort to fund clean and accessible water for people in impoverished areas of the world, thereby also extending to them the love of God.Our clean water projects are often done to supplement the work of established holistic ministries. Through a grant application and selection process, we choose and support a ministry by providing the people they serve with clean water in order to relive that burden both financially and logistically. This gives them more time and money to extend additional services to their communities.We finance, support, and participate in the construction of clean water projects all over the world. Because we are completely volunteer-run, 100% of all funds raised go directly toward funding clean water projects.
Eswatini (formerly Swaziland) has the highest rate of HIV infection in the world. A generation of children is being left without parents; a generation of grandparents are being left to raise them without resources.

The Holy Woman Foundation was founded to raise funds for needy Jewish children in Jerusalem. Currently, our foundation provides hot lunches and enrichment programming for little girls, aged 6-14, enrolled in Ohr Batya in the Vucharian section of Jerusalem. All of our girls come from dysfunctional and impoverished homes. The school is for "throw-away" girls who would not be accepted elsewhere because of their unstable family backgrounds (mother mentally ill, father in jail, father has abandoned family, etc.). The school day ends at 1 pm, and then the girls go home to. . . . . nothing. Rebbetzin Esther Ben Chaim (see chapter 13 of the bestseller, Holy Woman), the principal of the school, has been able to start an afternoon program since receiving funds from the Holy Woman Foundation. This program gives the girls a hot lunch (their only protein meal of the day‚ and for many their only meal of the day), plus art, music, computer science, field trips, big sisters, tutoring and psychotherapy when needed. None of these things are provided by the government curriculum. Rebbetzin Chaya Sara Kramer, the Holy Woman, blessed this school. The Holy Woman Foundation, created in her memory, seeks to perpetuate the devoted caring for needy Jewish children to which she dedicated her life.
