Equipping through education and care for community needs.
Using engineering, agriculture, and business knowledge, ODD works with association networks to experiment, teach, and provide income-generating activities with local partners. These initiatives include improvements on existing practices or new activities that are able to be sourced and sustained locally. |
Investing through infrastructure initiatives.
While not our primary focus, community infrastructure projects are a strategic way to create a foundation for future local development. To accomplish these projects, ODD partners with international donors, experts, and short term teams to import resources currently unavailable locally. |
Impacting through
Christian love and witness. The mentality of poverty is crippling the church’s effectiveness in discipleship and growth. Often, the church here understands the idea of development as receipt of funds rather than an opportunity for congregations to be the hands and feet of Christ. ODD works with local churches to equip them for love and service in their communities. |
