Global Solidarity, Local Action

Motivated by our Ignatian values, we stand in solidarity with the works and initiatives of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) which are responding to the challenges faced by communities in Latin America, Africa, and Asia. We collaborate with local Jesuit organizations by providing financial support and project resources to help them expand their capacity to address the challenges their communities are facing. 

With support from generous individuals and organizations in the United States, we are responding to the Jesuit’s call “to go anywhere across the geographical and cultural frontiers where there is need of working with Christ.”

How you can help right now.

In response to the suspension of foreign aid, we reaffirm our commitment to the Ignatian values that guide our mission. Values which compel us to stand in solidarity with those most in need, to uphold the inherent dignity of every person, and to advocate for the protection of human rights across all spheres.

We are working with network partners to advocate for the restoration of the international affairs budget. In the interim, though, we need your support. Please consider supporting our efforts in two ways:

Donate

  • Every Dollar Counts

    Making a donation to American Jesuits International means supporting crucial initiatives like our work to defend the right to quality education for everyone. Your donations allow us to support and grow Jesuit initiatives that are educating students on the margins of our society.

    We believe that people understand their context best, so we stand in solidarity with Jesuit organizations who are already immersed in local communities. From schools to migrant centers, parishes to health clinics, the Jesuits have been responding to the needs of communities in need for nearly 500 years.

    Your support allows us to amplify their capacity to respond to the challenges that their communities face.
