Since 2013, CC Ministries has been involved in Pakistan, a country of 240 million where Christians face poverty because of inequality, lack of education, marginalization and sometimes persecution.
Pakistani Christian leaders say, “If you really want to help our community, help us with education.” This advice led to the launch of a ministry known as Starfish Asia. Starfish is making a difference throughout Pakistan, addressing the educational needs of the poor, especially (though not exclusively) in the Christian community. CC Ministries supports the wonderful work of Starfish Asia in Pakistan, helping Christian schools cover teachers’ salaries and operational costs, and contributing to the effective ministry of other schools around the country. (Learn more about Starfish Asia on their Website.)
This CC Ministries project helps Pakistan’s disadvantaged children escape from poverty through education. Our generous donors enable Christian schools to provide good quality education, thus helping students achieve their potential, and enabling them to take the journey from ignorance and poverty to a life of dignity and responsibility.
