G.O. Ministries, Inc.

G.O. Ministries, Inc. is a Christian non-profit organization dedicated to the ministry of short-term missions and the development of global partnerships of ministry. G.O. Ministries was incorporated in 1996 to send groups to support the work of Nationals and to develop Partnerships of Ministry to provide much needed encouragement and support. Its main ministry focus is on the people of Haiti and the Dominican Republic with stateside offices located in Louisville, Kentucky. With an already established line of communication and passage throughout the island, G.O. Ministries becomes a vital resource to deliver relief to impact people. Efforts are underway to collect and deliver supplies directly to the people of Haiti. 100% of all contributions to G.O. Ministries will go to the people and needs of Haiti.
