Summit Missions International is helping the needy of the world. We provide opportunities for the community to be involved as Ambassadors of Hope and Help. Here are some of the ways people are helping.

Warehouse and Office Teams. At our Tallmadge, Ohio facility volunteers prepare humanitarian relief for shipment. Together they sort and box clothes, prepare and pack shoes, assemble school packs, hygiene packs, or food packs. Some organize and load containers while others help transport products to the warehouse. They also work on mailings or special office and holiday projects related to SMI.

Short-Term Project Teams. These are traveling teams that go to various parts of Eastern Europe to complete special projects. Some of the service projects include construction, medical programs; youth outreach ministries, relief distribution and teaching opportunities. Candidates apply to SMI, raise their travel and project costs and attend preparatory sessions for their ten-day to two-week adventure of serving in another country.

Community Project Teams. Friends of SMI serve as team leaders to organize their church, youth group, scout group, home school association or other organizations to conduct a drive for humanitarian items. Their objective may be filling a whole shipping container or simply five-gallon buckets or boxes of products. Team leaders coordinate their group to promote, gather products, obtain sponsors or other special work related to their project.

Relief Product Coordinators. Industry, schools, retail stores, wholesalers, manufacturers, hospitals, and other humanitarian organizations are some of the resources that generate products for SMI. Relief Product Coordinators represent SMI at their job, in their community and through their contacts locate useful products for relief shipments. They are the “eyes and ears” of SMI, actively contacting suppliers and using some of America’s abundance for the world’s needy.

Hope and Help Financial Partners. Providing tax-deductible donations, these friends enable Summit Missions International to fulfill its vision of ambassadors of hope and help to needy peoples who live in the areas served by SMI.
