Global Aid Network (GAiN) is a worldwide humanitarian relief and development organization, based in Langley, BC, dedicated to bringing hope and tangible help to the poor and the suffering. GAiN’s mission is to "reveal hope by sharing God's unconditional love and restore life by demonstrating the gospel through compassionate action to those who are living in poverty, injustice and crisis around the world". 

GAiN has three main program areas: Water for Life Initiative, Disaster Relief & Development, and Women & Children. It is not clear how funds are allocated among these three programs. The Water for Life Initiative provides clean water through funding the construction of wells, as well as hygiene and sanitation training to people in Benin, Tanzania, Togo, Ethiopia, and Thailand. The Relief & Development program provides disaster relief and support for refugees and orphans. GAiN’s programs for children focus on providing basic necessities, education, counseling, spiritual care, and assistance for children with special needs.

August 31, 2022: This is Charity Intelligence's most recent report on Global Aid Network. Ci requested GAiN's financial statements but did not receive them. As such, Charity Intelligence was unable to update this report that shows GAiN's F2018 work.

Global Aid Network had donations of $4.1m, including $82k in donated goods-in-kind, and total revenue of $5.2m in F2018. Administrative costs were 8% of total revenues and fundraising costs were 3% of donations (excluding $295k received from the related Power to Change Ministries). Total overhead of 11% is within Ci’s reasonable range. GAiN has $2.4m in funding reserves that can cover 53% of F2018 program costs. Although it reports $523k in fundraising and administrative costs in F2018, the charity has not reported any paid employees on its 2018 or 2019 T3010 filings with the CRA.
