FOCUS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, FEIN: 26-4427803
As an expression of Christ’s love, FOCUS exists to serve the poor by bringing together Orthodox Christian churches and community partners to provide Food, Occupation, Clothing, Understanding, and Shelter and other assistance to address the needs of local communities.
We envision a world where everyone experiences and shares the transformative love of Christ.
Who and how we serve is at the HEART of all we do.
Hospitality
Just as Abraham offered hospitality to strangers, we welcome all who come to us with open arms.
Excellence
As a ministry serving in the Lord’s name, “good enough” is never enough for us. We pursue excellence in every action and task, knowing that our work honors God and serves others with the highest quality and care.
Authenticity
Through our service to others, we seek to become fully who God uniquely created each of us to be, living out the beauty of being made in His image and likeness.
Relationship
Our work can only be accomplished through cultivating meaningful relationships with one another, creating community grounded in faith, hope, and love. In coming face-to-face with each other, we come face-to-face with God through his living icons.
Transparency
Our commitment to openness goes far beyond finances; with open hearts, we embrace transparency, allowing God’s light and truth to shine brightly through our work and into the world.
All of FOCUS North America’s services are provided without discrimination of any kind. We do not require any faith commitment from anyone we help.
