PUB 655 TOPIC 7: Faith-Based Organization Case Study

Populations: Assess the populations served by the organization or ministry.

The organization targets the vulnerable in society, including young children, the youth, the economically disadvantaged, and those affected by war, drought, floods, disease outbreaks, and earthquakes. To identify the populations or individuals that require assistance, the organization uses churches and local leaders in the different areas to understand the needs of the communities. The local leaders and churches provide the details about the community’s needs, such as medical needs, educational and other basic needs, which the organization then analyzes to determine whether their service is required or not. The organization also assesses the availability of facilities such as hospitals and clinics in the community. In most of the areas they serve, the organization is the sole provider of medical care services in those communities. The organization also depends on outbreaks or natural calamities to identify populations they need to serve. For example, news of disease outbreaks, war, or other calamities in areas that the organization can reach, are used to guide their services to humanity. The organization does not outline criteria for qualification; they provide help and assistance to those in need. For example, in the medical facilities, they treat everyone, including those who can pay for the services and those unable to cover the medical expenses (Advancing Ministries of Gospel International, 2022).

Funding Mechanism: Assess the funding mechanism of the organization:

The organization depends on funding from donors and revenue collected from their investments, including hospitals and stocks. AMG International receives donations from well-wishers all over the globe. The organization also stocks in different businesses; for example, it owns 98.42% of stocks in St. Luke’s Hospital in Thessaloniki, Greece, which is a for-profit organization, funds collected from this means are used to support its missionary work in different regions they operate in. It relies on local communities being served to support its mission. The organization uses professional volunteers from the communities and provides training to improve their skills to assist them in fulfilling their mission. It also provides education and training scholarships for young children and adults to gather relevant skills in different areas and use them to advance its mission (Murchison, 2020).
