History and Background
The African Methodist Episcopal Church Service and Development Agency (AME-SADA) is the humanitarian relief and development entity of the African Methodist Episcopal Church (AME), the oldest organized African American Church in the United States.

About AME-SADA

AME-SADA is a nonprofit organization, dedicated to improving the quality of life in Africa and the Caribbean. AME-SADA grew out of the collective efforts of several primary individuals -- Bishop John Hurst Adams, Bishop Frederick C. James, Ms. Wilburn Boddie, Reverend Lonnie Johnson, Dr. Joseph McKinney and the support of Bishop Donald G. K. Ming. It was their desire to strengthen the mission of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in the lives of people overseas.

Since its founding 28 years ago, AME-SADA has demonstrated the implementation of its mission, Helping People Help Themselves, by providing essential assistance to those in need through health, micro-credit and education programs, as wells as emergency humanitarian aid in Africa and Haiti.

AME-SADA is a charitable institution under section 501 (c) 3 of the Internal Revenue Code. AME-SADA's financial support comes from the AME Church, government, foreign institutions and thousands of persons committed to our vision for a better world.

AME-SADA has its headquarters in Washington, D.C., with field offices in Haiti and South Africa.

How You Can Help
AME-SADA depends on contributions to carry out its essential work in Africa and the Caribbean. Gifts to AME-SADA may take several forms. For example, donors may support current programs in Haiti and South Africa. Such support may be given outright or in cash installments based on a written pledge. Many programs are available for immediate participation

To meet longer-term needs, AME-SADA is building a permanent endowment. The endowment consists of a growing principle from which only the annual earnings are spent. Major gifts to the endowment ensure the perpetuation of AME-SADA's self help assistance over time, facilitate long range planning and address the needs of countries or populations not otherwise funded. In addition to that from cash support, donors may receive significant tax savings and opportunities for public recognition through bequests, charitable trusts, gifts of publicly traded securities, appreciated property and proceeds from life insurance and retirement funds.

HAITI EARTHQUAKE RELIEF FUND
AME-SADA is currently involved in assessing the dire situation in Haiti following the devastating Earthquake of January 12, 2010.

Following the assessment we will be working with a coalition of agencies to bring relief to the people of Haiti in humanitarian assistance and through our network of clinics and micro credit operations.
