International Disaster Emergency Service

In a world wrought with suffering, the need for help and hope runs deep. Natural disasters and violent conflicts, hunger and malnutrition, under-development and marginalization, limited access to needed healthcare, and a lack of the presence of Jesus Christ -- all of these things force millions of people just like you into physical and spiritual poverty.

​IDES exists to meet physical and spiritual needs of suffering people throughout the world in the name of Jesus Christ.

IDES is a Christian 501(c)(3) organization that serves as a link in the Godly chain of concern that connects those who are hurting worldwide to those who have a heart of compassion. Established in 1973, IDES has partnered with local churches in the U.S. and mission workers in more than 110 countries during times of crisis.

Our Five Focus Areas:

-Disaster Response
