Our Mission
We are a Christian non-profit in Louisville, Kentucky whose mission it is to share God’s love with international students and scholars at our local universities. We do this by partnering with churches, individuals, and businesses to provide for the various tangible, emotional and spiritual needs of students on campus. We work in cooperation with the local registered student organization of UofL known as “OASIS” (Organization Assisting and Serving International Students and Scholars).
Our mission is unique in that international students and scholars (unlike refugees) are the future leaders of the world. These individuals will eventually return to their home countries to lead their people into the future (*see table below). We have a unique opportunity to influence these influencers while they are in Louisville.
