Samaritan’s Purse: An Entrepreneurial Nonprofit

Samaritan’s Purse is a well known nonprofit Christian organization. This organization is best known for their amazing ministry “Operation Christmas Child” in which 10.6 million Christmas presents are sent across the world to underdeveloped countries. In addition to sending Christmas gifts, “Operation Christmas Child” also spreads the gospel to millions of people every year. Not only are they taught the gospel through their gifts and a small book that comes with each gift, there is also a follow-up in each region. This follow-up is centered around a Christian education and teaches each child about the Gospel. Samaritan’s Purse is not only making a huge impact through this incredibly impressive ministry, but also through the ever-changing projects that they do in addition to “Operation Christmas Child”. These projects, right now, include aid in Australia after the wildfires, sight restoration in Sudan, aid in the Philippines following earthquakes, and so much more! In every area that Samaritan’s Purse aids, they bring the good news of the Gospel with them. Not only that, but Samaritan’s Purse is ever-changing depending on the needs of the world at any given moment! This is extremely entrepreneurial of them and something that many nonprofits fail to do.
