In conjunction with Giving Tuesday, Kerusso donated over 58,000 products to nonprofit humanitarian organizations. The Christian apparel company based in Berryville, Arkansas, has donated to a variety of organizations, including Convoy of Hope, Operation Christmas Child, A Christmas to Remember, Matthew 25: Ministries and Clothing Across America Inc.
Convoy of Hope is a faith-based organization with a goal to feed the world through children’s feeding initiatives, community outreach and disaster response. Kerusso has partnered with the organization for many years. Convoy of Hope will distribute the donated items in its global outreach network, with likely locations including Central America and Africa. Any donated items that remain in the United States will be implemented in their rural community distributions.
Operation Christmas Child helps to serve children in need around the world. A Christmas to Remember was created in northwest Arkansas as a ministry to help ease the stress for under-resourced families at Christmas time. Matthew 25: Ministries provides humanitarian supplies to those in need. Clothing Across America Inc. acts as a conduit between nonprofit human service agencies and manufacturers, providing brand new clothes and personal care items to nonprofit agencies as well as collaborating with shelters, clothing banks and emergency relief organizations.
“Our mission at Kerusso is to share the good news with the world through products about Jesus,” says Vic Kennett, founder and CEO of Kerusso. “Connecting with Convoy of Hope and other humanitarian organizations is an honor for us. Our T-shirts and other products meet tangible needs in areas where people are struggling or communities in crisis. Through the work of organizations who receive our products, messages of God’s love are sent across America and around the world in a meaningful way.”
