Helping people in a certain way is great and is a wonderful contribution to the society but transforming a certain region by providing all sorts of aid is truly significant. Mary Queen makes sure to fulfill the needs of an area in every way to help them live and enjoy the life so the tragedy that happened to them only increases their moral and not their problems.
I am one of the beneficiaries that Mary queen of all nations has been supporting with tuition through Fr. joseph martin kibeti and may the good Lord bless this charity abundantly.
I thank the Lord for the gift of Mary Queen of all nations for the support they have given us. in fact they helped us with education fees for the students and this has greatly helped the poor students to continue with studies, they have also been giving us support to help the needy, the poor and the suffering.
God bless all the members abundantly.

I am SR. MA. MILAGROS N. CAPERIG, O.P - the volunteer coordinator and missionary of MQAN. I've been with MQAN since 2013, when I first became their ground missionary during Typhoon Haiyan, known in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Yolanda.
MQAN is always very supportive whenever we ask for any assistance, whether it is for scholarship or in calamities. This year, MQAN again extended their help with the calamities that happened in Mindanao, including the massive flooding and landslides. We were able to help more than 200 households with food packs, drinking water, clothes, and even cleaning solutions and materials in the nearby schools.
thank you as always, dear MQAN! God will bless you in all your endeavors, assisting humanities

I am SR. MA. MILAGROS N. CAPERIG, O.P now the administrator of Mother Rosario School of Tagum, Inc. in Tagum City, Davao del Norte, Philippines. Our training center MRSTI is so blessed to receive assistance from Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance in a form of cash to finance 14 scholars to take up Bread and Pastry Production NCII training to eventually get a national certificate for them to apply for a job or start a small bread and pastries business.
This is the first time our center here in Mindanao Region received such assistance from MQAN and we hope to have another batch as there are really plenty of unemployed in our area that needs national certificate training to be able to land a job.
On 16 February 2024, the floods, rains, and landslides had damaged or destroyed more than 1,600 houses. These included at least 650 that were totally damaged and more than 900 partially damaged in Davao and Caraga regions (NDRRMC 16/02/2024). Sr. Mila Caperig text Mary Queen of All Nations Alliance for help and MQAN responded to the requested.
The Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) said that the landslide was due to natural causes, particularly persistent rains in the area since January 2024.
An email asking for help was received from Sr Mila as fallows:
Dear Delia, Good day to you and the rest of the MQAN team. I suppose you've heard the latest news of the massive flooding and landslide here in Davao Region up until now. I wonder if MQAN can extend help. We've been in the field giving relief goods even some of our workers are victims themselves. The group of religious sisters here are also helping and extending volunteer works and we need funds to continue the mission.
After the funds was received and her mission of distribution was done we received an email stating the following:
Dear Delia, attached is my overall report during our distribution of relief goods. I would like to thank you and everybody in MQAN for extending your monetary assistance. We were able to reach out to more or less 300 families with this effort.
Once again, thank you.
God bless your group with more funding.
As you see Mary Queen of All Nations is just a small organization but we do a lot for any small donations we had received. Board members are never paid for their services rendered to MQAN. We are all volunteers. The Certificate of Appreciation from the missionary team was a proof of MQAN services to the poor.

As far as I am concern, I knew Mary Queen of Nations for many years now. It is the best organization as far as helping and treating the poor.
No one has ever become poor by giving. It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving. If you haven't got any charity in your heart, you have the worst kind of heart trouble. Every good act is charity.
The MQAN had help the education for priesthood for many years now. Currently MQAN is supporting two students for their theological schooling. Hopefully if they finish the schooling they will continue to become a priest for their community.
The MQAN had been providing toys, clothes, food, feeding program, rice distribution, gift giving to the prisoners & kids, paid the education of indigent students and many more.
MQAN needs donors as well so that they could continue their mission.
Very pleased with what Mary Queen of All Nations has been doing.
As a board member, I continue to volunteer my time in support of this charity's four-fold mission, i.e. provide relief for disaster victims, improve the health conditions of the poor, provide educational and financial assistance to the needy, and foster self-sufficiency projects.
As of mid-year 2024, we have supported children's and prison ministries in the Philippines and provided tuition assistance for students in Uganda. Under consideration are a school construction project and financial aid for a struggling family with an ailing infant.

My wife Lily and I were introduced to Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance (MQANMA) by its president & CEO Jim Cavanaugh six years ago.
We had met Mr. Cavanaugh upon our first visit to Assumption Church in Morristown, NJ, where he was an active parishioner and Eucharistic Minister.
Jim immediately noticed that we were new parishioners, and extended the kindest welcome to us.
Soon thereafter, Jim invited us to board meetings of MQANMA. At these meetings we learned of the alliance's remarkable work for the poor, and the professional manner by which they conducted every facet of their business. This inspired us to assist at various fundraisers, and to make contributions.
There is an inspirational Scripture verse that proclaims "I know that God will do justice to the needy, and will lift up the poor." (Psalm 10: 17, 18)
When we reflect on these words, we are reminded that God does his work through the goodness of His people. MQANMA is an instrument of heaven to assist the poor, and all who have assisted this wonderful alliance will certainly experience great personal satisfaction, as well as a blessing from above.
As a married Roman Catholic couple dedicated to serving our faith, we must humbly share that MQANMA has given us a wonderful opportunity to express our devotion to the poor.

This is the great opportunity for me to become successful in life. I was able to learn the proper way on how to bake pastries and bread. It was so nice, there is an excitement to report to school because I am thinking of what's the next recipe to make everytime we met at school and I was enjoying in baking. This was the best help to create a business sooner or go to abroad maybe hopefully in God's will. These kind of qualification is very useful as one of your beneficiary. I will treasure it.

I pray for you to be blessed more so you could pass on to others oppurtunities like what we have now so everyone could be as productive and successful in the near future. Thank you and may God bless us more.

Hello, I’m Roger B. Barcelona. I'm a seminarian here in the Philippines. After my Spirituality Year, I am planning to take regency because of financial needs. But MQAN Missionary Alliance helps me in order to continue my studies. Now, I am a second year theologian and I would like to thank MQAN Missionary Alliance for their generosity not only for me but also for the individuals and communities in need. MQAN has done a lot for helping those in need. May God Bless you always.
I remember when I was still a seminarian, Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance helped my two fellow seminarians for their financial responsibilities to the theology school where we study. Thanks God for the people who compose it in order to support those who follow the footsteps of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ through priesthood.
MQAN Missionary Alliance has helped me in my mission to teach the less privileged kids here in the Philippines. They provided cash donations quarterly and provided "balikbayan" boxes once a year since 2020. "Balikbayan" boxes are donations in kind which includes rosaries, books, beads, clothes, school supplies, toys, and toiletries for the less privileged kids that I am teaching for free here in the Philippines. In behalf of the kids, we would like to thank MQAN Missionary Alliance for their unending support for us. God bless us all!
We, at Baptist Bible Seminary in Taytay, Rizal, are grateful for the box containing children's books, clothing, first aid meds and clothing. We truly appreciate your generous expression of God's love.
I have been a volunteer to Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for the past 10 years. I am the volunteer who received and packed children's & other books that was donated to MQAN. All the religious books and encyclopedias were sent to the places that needed a library, seminarians, churches and street missionaries. We had sent 28 boxes (Total) to different places just this year (2021). The Agape Community Services provided MQAN all the medical supplies and personal items ie: gauzes, bandage, medicines, masks, face soap, laundry soap, office & school supplies, toys etc in January & September 2021. All supplies that MQAN received in January were all distributed. Ready to pack the items MQAN received lately. MQAN does the job way beyond their expectations thru the help of our donors and other organizations. MQAN can't do it without the compassion of all MQAN donors & Anniversary Fundraiser event and Agape Community Services for supplies.

I am one of the volunteer that helps Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance in distribution of funds to different countries to help their missionaries. As far as I am concern, Mary Queen of All Nations does the charitable work way far exceeds expectations. With small amount of money from donors, every penny was used up to help the poor. Number 1 photo reflect the children sanitation built in Uganda. Number 2 photo was building the church in India, Number 3 photo was the distribution of Clothes, toys and canned good in Philippines and Number 4 photo was the rice distribution in Cameroon, Africa. All funds sent to the different places are well documented. They provide the Mary Queen of All Nations, a proposal followed by photos how the money was used up for the project that was requested. Due to the pandemic, the organization didn't have enough to provide for the poor. I will suggest all help financially, small or big, you will not regret that your donations will be given to the most needy.
The work of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance (MQANMA) is truly inspirational. It is our honor to write this review giving them the highest rating of five stars.
Today is the Feast of Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta. This great saint reminds us through her example to care for the poor. Mother Teresa’s work continues through her Missionary Sisters of Charity. It also continues whenever someone remembers the poor through prayers, words, and actions. On this feast day, we are confident that Saint Teresa of Calcutta smiles upon the sisters of her order, as well as on MQANMA and all who care for the poor.
As a married couple, we have been privileged to assist many charitable efforts. These have included MQANMA for the past five years. We are inspired by their remarkable dedication and accomplishments to assist the poor. We wholeheartedly recommend others to support their wonderful work.

Albania is the only country to have in its constitution there is no God! In 1991 the college students toppled the tyrannical government and all were free! But very poor. When we began our mission in 1994 the children had no school and very little food. Today we are celebrating 25 years of school with the Children of Berat, Albania. Thanks to Mary Queen of All Nations we have been able to provide food, clothing and a good education to the children of this city. Thank you to all in this MQOAN that provide so much for so many different people in this wonderful world of ours!

The Saint Anne Catholic School of Balasan, Inc. is forever grateful to the Mary, Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance. We received great help from them when our school was visited by the typhoon Ursula last December 25, 2019. It was a very wonderful and unforgettable Christmas celebration since the thunderstorms, hurricane and heavy rains came to join the celebration for six hours. Some parts of our school buildings and convent were damaged, school facilities, computers and books were exposed and destroyed. However, our hearts were filled with hope. The Mary, Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance came to extend their undying generosity and support to us. A million thanks for the financial aid, books, bibles, dictionaries, atlas, encyclopedias, story books, cards, some clothing, etc. that they sent us. God’s grace were overflowing in abundance. Thus, the visitation of typhoon Ursula became a blessing in disguise that Christmas Eve.
Thank you so much and may God grant them a hundred fold blessings.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Mary Queen of All Nations. They sent balikbayan boxes filled with toys and clothing every year and are distributed every Christmas. You will see the sweetest smile of the kids upon receiving the toys. They have been giving help since 2009. Attached are the pictures during distribution of school supplies and bags from Kinder to High School. For the donors of MQAN, your kindness and generosity have reached the hearts of residents and children of Minagbag, Quezon, Isabela. May God bless you a hundred fold!
This nonprofit organization is genuine. For over the past 39 years and counting this organization continue to freely serve, donate and pray for many people.

Therefore, I salute all the staff members of this organization for the tirelessly, selflessly, and their unwavering spirit doing their mission which is the mission of Jesus Christ when He once lived on here earth. For "... Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give" (Mt 10:8).

This is a great non profitable alliance I ever met! This year my friend received a financial support from this non profitable organization and it was amazing. This alliance truly care for many people especially those who are considered by the society as marginalized. My friend was truly grateful because she was able to make 5 students continue their studies in college and high school. In addition, she was also able to distribute food package to the poor around her town. Lastly, she also received funds to buy goats and raise them as part of self supporting program for the poor. I believe sooner or later this generosity that is given will continue to grow and extend to the people whom the Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance supports. Personally, I am grateful to Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for supporting my friend. If there is anything I can help in any way I would definitely I would gladly offer my time and resources. God bless you all and please continue your good work and May God bless you in return!
MQAN has been an impactful supporter of our program of children in our small village in Northern Malawi. They have supported our 10 orphaned teenage girls through high school in a community that otherwise would have promoted child marriage. Because of MQAN's support with the young girls, they have opportunities to use their education for academic and career prospects for brighter futures. Also, they contributed to supporting a locally-run orphanage for food and supplies. Even when I was in Malawi during political protests and unrest, they continually reached out to ensure that I was OK and offered any possible support if needed. This organization cares about the people they support and has nothing but kindness and generosity to share with the world.

Every year, I spend a couple months living in a small village in Malawi, trying to help those who cannot access it receive an education. Since people need to pay for any time of secondary school, many children, especially those missing parents, result to getting married or working very low-to-nothing-waged jobs in the fields. Mary Queen of All Nations helped sponsor 5 orphans to go to secondary school so they can work on building their own freedoms and lives, while also planning to give back to the community. Additionally, when the local village hospital is filled with over half of its patients there for malnutrition, they cannot afford to actually feed the patients anymore. Mary Queen of All Nations worked to supply enough Maize, Rice, and eggs so each ward could eat and start building their nutrition. Rumphi, Malawi is eternally grateful for all that MQAN is doing to support their growth and believe that they, too, can make a difference one day.
I have great respect and admiration for this Missionary Alliance. Through the work they do, they have been a vivid extension of God's loving hand to the poor and the missionaries who assist the poor. Their work is focused on lifting up the situation of poor communites rather than a handout. They support education and self sufficiency progjects for the indigent communities they help. Every cent donated to this charity goes to the poor which i think is quite remarkable.

I have been supporting Mary Queen of All Nations for several years now. It is a wonderful organization that supports the underprivilege and the marginalized in different third world countries. I trust them with monetary support because I am assured that every dollar counts. Every dollar goes to charity and the self sufficiency projects that they support. I like the idea of helping people lift up themselves through education and livelihood projects rather than simply giving them a hand out. I think it also uplift their dignity and self - respect as productive individuals. MQAN exemplify the values of Christian living through sharing and living the Gospel...to love thy neighbor as thy self and to love God above all thing.... to SEE the face of Christ amongst the poor and the needy .

Just recently, last May, from being the channel I became the recipient of this help myself. My mother underwent a splenectomy, a procedure that needs a big amount. when I contacted Mrs. Delia she right away offered help and was privileged to meet the member of the Board via video chat. They were so positive about extending their help - this time my mother can already move around, thanks to the ever-supportive MQAN. God Bless and more power!
as of this time, my mission is to extend help to the less privileged learners of the nearby barangay where I am presently assigned. The supplies are already available, in a month we will already be distributing those supplies and feeding sessions.

This non profit has been helping thousands of the world poor around the world for 34 years.
I've volunteered the past 5 years and seen the good work being done to support the missionaries who present the needs for support. Educational grants, food, shelter, and many other forms of support have given a hand up to the needy. The fact that 100% of donations go to the needy has been commendable. I heartily endorse this charitable mission knowing that
its donors money will be well spent.
God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them. Hebrew 6:10 Show your generosity thru action by giving generously. Mary Queen of All Nation Missionary Alliance is one of the best organization far exceed my expectation. They are giving 100 % of your donation helping the poor rise from poverty.

I had done so many missionary works too and I find that this organization is well managed by the board members. For 2013, the group will receive the Caritas Award “High recognition by the Catholic Charities”. What more could you ask for. How they manage the donations is that 100% contributions go to the needy. Volunteers and board members are not paid to their time and effort that they had contributed. The grace and blessing from the Almighty is just what they are looking for. It is purely “LOVE”.
The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor. Proverbs 22:9. What else could you do on earth except to Live, Love, Share, and Enjoy while you could still breath. I had noticed the generous acts of the donors, officers, volunteers, and their friends as far as 100% contribution of the time, generous donations and willingness to help the poor. Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance is one of the organization you could really trust your donations. Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act. Do not say to your neighbor, "Come back tomorrow and I’ll give it to you"—when you already have it with you. Proverbs 3:27-28. Mary Queen of all Nations will be celebrating their 34th Anniversary on Dec 9th, 2018. First photo: Supplies sent to the Philippines, medical mission, coffee plantation for Uganda, and sewing machines provided to Rwanda for self sufficiency project and many more.

I do pray and hope that this organization will continue to support the poor and needy in our school and others in the world.

Currently I am a asst. librarian and at the same time the in charge of the HRS laboratory at Dominican College of Iloilo. I was luckily to be absorb by the school where I graduated and I am very thankful for that.
Like many others I have also a simple dream before. Just to have a degree but the thing is, I never expected to have a job after graduation.
Nothing impossible with the help of people have the heart to help for those needy. I was inspired to continue and persevere despite of the struggles and challenges until I reach of what I am today. With those people like Maam Merla, the founder, Mr. Nolasco, the Global Ambassador who visited us last January, 2017 and we are blessed and glad for the effort just for us. Also for the board of members of MQAN and for those who help to make it strong and able to help people.
I hope that this story of mine will also inspired others to continue what they have started and don't stop dreaming. I do believe that we are the captain of our own ship and the author of our own book. We are the one who wrote our own stories and decide what will be the ending of it.
Thank you so much for an inspiration for everyone. God bless everyone. It is not easy but everything is worth it.

Being one of the New Members on the Board, I remember my first day last year where I just jumped right into the meeting. There were so many different projects going on, ranging from rice distribution to helping educate individuals to become seminarians, that it all seemed overwhelming. However, with very kind and compassionate board members, it was easy to learn the ins-and-outs of what Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance was doing. I was really astounded by the outreach of the Alliance and just how much of an impact we were making. It is really great to continue to watch Mary Queen of All Nations grow, and to be a part of it is absolutely amazing.
I'm grateful for the work done by this organization to help students through me here in Uganda. Bandua P.

When the typhoon Yolanda hit the Philippines I was so worried especially when I heard the news that Northern Antique was in signal number4 because of my grandparents. I left them when I entered the convent, they are both single and in old age.
I don't have communication with them even after the typhoon. i can't go home because I am chosen to be sent in one of our schools to help the sisters there in cleaning the convent. Luckily, one of our sisters went home to check the situation of her family and she visited also our place. By God's grace both my grandparents were alive and safe but the roof of our house were blew by Yolanda.
When I saw the pictures that our sister taken I felt helpless but God sent someone to help us, the Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance through Sr. Mike. She gave me an amount of money to repair our house.
Thank you Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for helping us, victims of Yolanda.
The typhoon Yolanda devastated our house. My family became so worried how to start again but thanks be to God, He sent us, Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance to help us rebuild it again. They gave us financial assistance through our sister, Sr. Michaela, O.P.
With this, in behalf of my family, I want to thank you for your great help. My family living comfortable now in our new house personally made by my father because as of now we cannot hire any carpenter as they are busy rebuilding their own houses too.

On that morning, I didn't expect that we are already in signal # 4 but we can't feel it because there is no rain but during in the afternoon, the typhoon started to hit our barangay. The heavy rain started to pouring down, the air sounds like very angry. But then, were prepared, our things are placed already in the 2nd floor of my grandfather's house. During that night, we started to rattled because there is flood already it is not just an ordinary flood because it reaches the roof of our house because of these i started getting nervous because i haven't experienced that kind of tragedy in my entire life. I just pray to god to save us against this super typhoon YOLANDA.

Before the day when super typhoon YOLANDA hits Western Visayas, I and my family prayed and prepare our things on whatever happens. I was afraid and nervous thinking on what will happen to us after that tragedy. November 8, the day typhoon Yolanda was expected to hit Western Visayas, my father told my mother to packed our things and evacuate to higher place, because our place is not safe to stay. after we packed our things we ride to a bus going to the evacuation center. while we are ridding I think and prayed the safeness of my father and brother who are lift on our house. in the afternoon the day typhoon Yolanda came we are on the evacuation center and we are told to stay on our place. No one is allowed to go outside the center, because of the things happening outside. the branches of trees were falling and it is dangerous to go outside. After that day, the fearful day that i ever encountered in my entire life, my mother thought that we can now go back to our house, but a bad message we received that our place was flooded and the flow of the water was strong and rises high. And we come home we saw the disaster brought by typhoon Yolanda, the roof of our house was gone, and the trees around our house were all falling on the ground.
Thank you so much to MARY QUEEN OF ALL NATIONS MISSIONARY ALLIANCE for the assistance that my family received through Dominican College of Iloilo. God bless..
Nov. 8, 2013. 2 days before the super typhoon devastated Visayas, I text my mother to prepare for the said typhoon and they follow my suggestions and got their selves ready for the coming of YOLANDA. When the super typhoon YOLANDA hit Sara, Iloilo with Signal number four last November 08, 2013, I was there. I was there to help and protect my family to the said Super Typhoon.
Nov. 8, 2013, Friday 12:00 Noon. It was the 1st time in my life that I have experienced a strong wind that was brought by Yolanda. It was not just a strong blew of wind, but a very strong wind that made the strong foundation of our roof lifted up. Our tree house has been toppled. Our newly constructed house has been damage by the wind. Yet, we are lucky, and still thankful to God that Yolanda strikes our location during the day, thinking about what if it strikes us at night. Maybe more damage has been caused by Yolanda.
After that day, everything was chaotic, but still was still thankful that no one got hurt in my Families and Friends, even our pet, dogs, and our source of income, the swine. They are all right.

I am Carla Mae Solis,one of the Dominican students here in Zarraga Iloilo and we became victim of the typhoon Yolanda. I want to thank the MARY QUEEN OF ALL NATIONS ALLIANCE for giving us aid through the Dominican Sisters. We received rice, canned goods, noodles and personal things. Thank you and God bless.
The students of the Dominican College of Iloilo who became victims of the typhoon Yolanda received goods that they really needed at this time. This aid were sponsored by the Mary Queen of all Nations Alliance and we are very grateful on that. The family of our students wants to extend their gratitude to you.
Thank you very much and may God bless you and your endeavors.
Thank you and May God bless you Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for your immediate and wholehearted response to us here in the Philippines, devastated by the super typhoon "YOLANDA) specifically here in Western Visayas. You can see the horrible pictures of wreckages of buildings taken by CNN and other reports. The damages in Western Visayas is not very well publicized as the focus is in the eastern part where there are thousands of casualties but the destruction of buildings and crops are more or less the same. We sent appeal for assistance for our six schools and assistance for our sisters families whose homes are flattened by the typhoon. I have listed 20 of our sisters homes and it is still adding as communication is slow to arrive as there are no electricity and signals in the affected part of Northern Iloilo, Capiz antique, and aklan.
With your initial financial assistance we were able to respond to the people's need for food, clothing and shelter even just with the use of light materials like bamboo and nipa leaves for roofing. As of now, there are still many families asking for help to rebuild their homes. Foreign aids don't reach here as their concentration are in Tacloban, Leyte, Samar, Cebu, etc. Our4 convents and schools have no roofs. Its raining here. Our teachers and students are asking for help.
I've received excellent reports on your current PHILIPPINE RELIEF
effort. Hats off to your long-established missionaries there who
are able to securely receive and distribute efficiently 100 % of the
donations you receive for this cause.
I appreciate the fact that your MISSIONARY ALLIANCE has been
helping those in need for over 28 years. The hundreds of comments
on your organization's effectiveness averaging 4.94 STARS out of
5.00 is commendable .
I am sending additional checks to you from three donors who want
to help the needy in The Philippines. Each appreciates that your
organization takes no salary and you cover all administration costs
so their donations go undiluted for exactly the purpose they have
chosen.
I note that Mary Queen of All Nations was one of the most reviewed
non-profits by www.greatnonprofits.org this month. You were highly
recognized in categories such as International, Human Services,
Education and Religion, and even topped those 4 categories in New
Jersey as most rated.
Prospective donors for Philippine Typhoon Relief would be well
served if your charity shows up in the Disaster Relief category or at
least the opening pages of this excellent www.greatnonprofits.org
website which is featuring Philippine relief options.
Congrats to your organization and the visionaries of Great Non-Profits
to enable donors to match up with charities to make our world a
better place in creating Win-Wins.

Very excited about the wonderful things they are doing to help the very poor. Education is key to helping one rise above the difficulties they endure, especially for females. Keep up the great work!
Great organization. Members are always open and available for any spiritual needs. Members are very welcoming.
This selfless non-profit does wonderful work for some of the poorest populations in the world. Virtually 100% of donations are used to benefit the families fortunate enough to receive their assistance.
Great Works done for love. The Alliance had been doing great works of charity here in the Philippines. A lot of poor people received cash for livelihood project and are unable to write a review. I am writing for them as they don't have access to internet.
Ave Maria Purisima!
I am Sr. Ma. Mayflor Gedalanga, O.P.. presently I am assign at Dominican College of Iloilo and some of our students are recipient of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance and I am very grateful for that. They were able to pursue their studies because of your financial assistance.
May you continue helping people especially those who are in need.

One day while visiting my mother I heard her telling my nephew (7yr old) how some children in the world go to bed at night hungry. He wanted to know why their parents don't feed them. My mother explain that perhaps their parents didn't have work or worse these children didn't have parents. She went on to tell him about how she worked with on organization that helped get food to many of these children and would he like to help. Just a little of money from his allowance would help. He said " Ok Nana I'll give them five dollars from my bank." It was enough to make me come up with a donation also. My mother went on to explain how this organization spends every cent donated to help the poor. That made me increase my donation.
Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance was founded almost three decades ago and believes that God created this earth for all of us to enjoy. In this respect, this organization helps our less fortunate brothers and sisters in the third world countries who are in the category of "poorest of the poor" by providing the basic necessities like toilets, water wells, soaps, used clothes, medication, school supplies and others. It provides assistance on self-sufficiency projects so they will have a means of livelihood and be able to stand on their own. This earth was created by God for you and me and for everyone else to live on and enjoy for the rest of our lives. A small donation to this missionary alliance will go a long way to help out the rest of us in that other side of the globe who are not fortunate enough to have the blessings we enjoy in our country.
I am a volunteer and donor to this organization. MQAN is truly a wonderful charity organization run by volunteers. MQAN promotes self sustaining projects to the poor. 100% of the donations are used on these projects
I became of this organization through the founder whose love for Jesus is personal, tangible and so warm it transfers to others. That love spills over into loving and helping others, especially the poorest of the poor in the most basic of ways, to give them a chance to survive and thrive - from food, water, to education and very small business funding. It works. 100% of the donations go to the poor and missions. Priests and seminarians are given the basic finances or materials to do the work of God in areas that are so often forgotten. It proves that a little help, given willingly and smartly, often goes a very long way and produces much fruit.
For two years I've associated with volunteers of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance. I am astounded that they have provided services and goods to our neediest poor around the world with basic resources.
Every cent received as a donation is used in aid to others. The volunteers provide more than their time and personal resources to see that what is given to others in charity benefits them by allowing them to improve their own lives. Seeing such dedicated volunteers encourages me in my charitable efforts.
Absolutely love what Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance stands for. Great non-profit org!
Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance gives 100% of donations received to the poorest of the poor around the world. This speaks for itself how valid and important is this organization which is very unique in its operation. The expenses and the office is carried on the shoulder of the Founder of this organization. I am encouraging people that wants to give donations from the heart of generosity to the heart of the poorest people in the world. God bless this organization.
Respectfully, Margaret, one of the donors.
I truly love MQAN Missionary Alliance. I admire the founder Ms. Merla very much. This non-profit organization is a blessing to all.
Hard to say which charities deserves more accolades than the other, let alone ranking, however I fully support the works of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance. My relative is greatly connected in this organization and I'm proud of her involvement and her stories in an organization that helps those that are in need, gives a voice to the voiceless, and helps restore faith and hope in the name of Our Mother Mary.
The Blessed Mother taught us how to pray the rosary. The powers of prayer and the rosary has been seen and experience by many. This organization reminds us that because the dedication of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance has provided a miracle to those in need. I fully support this organization and what it stands for.
I have learned that for over a decade now the "MARY QUEEN OF ALL NATIONS MISSIONARY ALLIANCE" has been consistent in supporting the needs of our Girls' Home here in the Philippines; likewise the organization has been helping a good number of young boys and girls in pursuing their tertiary education through financial assistance. May the Good Lord who cannot be outdone in generosity bless your undertakings as you bring about hope for a better future for our people Thank you so much. May our Blessed Mother keep us all safe under her mantle.
God bless.

My poor orphans who had left our orphanage here in the Philippines, have no way to write their reviews as they don't have access to the internet. Some of them had improved in their life. Some are already in foreign nations. They had been helped by this organization during their school years with us. I write this review in behalf of them. Sr. Auxil Sumagaysay, O.P.
I became aware of this organization when my wife started donating to it. The more I heard about their work the more willing I was to donate to it. When I heard the story of the priest (somewhere in India) saying mass in the street using a cot for and altar and how this little group help build him a chapel, I became a supporter. Then the other projects I was made aware of such as the many self-sufficency projects so people could feed themselves, their family and maybe have have a little surplus so they can sell. That little surplus enables them to send their children to school ,get medical care for a sick member of the family. They moniter every cent that is spent and every donation is used entirely for their projects. All operational expenses is shoulder by their director and all the work is done by the director and a group of faithful volunteers.
Gives 100% of all donations to the poor for over 29 years .
operates with over 500 missionaries in 56 countries.
God loves a cheerful giver. A great reward awaits these people in this organization who are so selfgiving and generous to others who are in need.

I had volunteered few times and help out as much as I can. This organization deserves a high recognition. Their donor’s donations are 100 % going to the needy and indigent people who really deserved to be helped. What more you could say for an organization who could give their 100 % time and effort including the 100% donations to deserving third world country. We are blessed here in the United States that we basically have everything we needed to live on and survive.

I am sr jones, working in India. i came to know about this organization through fr bala, who helped children in our school. He told me about his organization and the good amount of work of charity they do for the poor. Many children as much as 40 of them are helped in their education. I admire their dedication and spirit of charity, without any profit, they committed themselves voluntarily for the cause of the poor. Their reward is great in Heaven! Thank you. god bless you.
I have learned about this organization few months ago. Since than I have asked for many masses to be offered for people that needed them very much. I have send but small donations for these masses and masses were always offered. When I expressed my concern if it was enough money Sr. Marla answered " if it is not enough i am going to support, do not worry". I am very thankful for such approach which aside of the fact that is very catholic is tremendously helpful. If not for Marla I would not have been able financially to have these masses offered for young troubled people that need God's Mercy so much especially that they have no one to pray for them. And I am a perfect stranger for them, not a family.
May God bless Marla and her organizations now and always. Thank you.

Great organization run by Sr.Merla and some dedicated volunteers who delivers 100 percent to the recipients.
Great Charity that promotes seld-sustaining projects and provides educational, nutritional,housing and medical needs to poor people around the world in the poorest 49 countries. This organization provides 100% of donations received to the poor and does not take salary or administrative cost from donations. This worthy non-profit organization provides HOPE to the blind, disabled, orphaned, disadvantaged, malnourished and those with physical and emotional challenges
Rather then being a recipient of Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance (MQANMA) assistance, I have been very fortunate, so my role is that of a donor. Therefore my concern is whether the money that is donated is used effectively and efficiently. This is where MQANMA shines. Anyone who takes the trouble to review their newsletter will be amazed at how much good work is done all over the world with their limited resources. The "big" charities leave me with a nagging concern that I am dealing with a corporation out to make a cash profit, not a human profit. Since every cent that is donated is put back into the mission, I can sleep at night. But that's not the whole story. MQANMA is the rare grass roots charity that does what an individual would want to do himself - put the good directly in the hands of and change the lives of the people who actually need it.
I am thankful to Sr Merla, for helping me with school uniform and fees through Fr Bala towards my education. Because of your goodness, i could continue my studies. I am grateful to you, Sr Merla. Though i have not seen you in person, but still i pray for you for your kindness towards me. Thanks to Sr Merla and her team. God bless You.

I am inspired by the great work of Mary Queen of All Nations Alliance. They support and care for those who need help.
It is praise worthy that they give 100% of the donations to meet the educational, nutritional, and medical needs to the poor in 49 countries.
Sr. Teddy Joyce A'daku, a member of Missionary congregation of sisters of Mary Mother of the Church, in Uganda. God bless Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for helping me raise five needy girls, morally, psychologically and educationally. These girls are now at secondary level, one will finish her vocational studies and get employed by December, this year.
I appeal to all the people of good will, to join hands and lift up the above charity group, so that many orphans and needy people may see hope, have a brighter future. I am a true friend and witness of the tremendous services rendered by the same, especially in pastoral, economic and educational fields. Africa has gained in many areas from this group, in those various ways. God bless all the Donors of Mary queen of all nations missionary alliance. Please, we need your help in serving God!
Happy All Saints Day and All Souls Day in advance! I am Sister Ma. Serafica M. Tolentino, OP, a member of the Congregation of the Dominican Sisters of the Most Holy Rosary of the Philippines.I am teaching in the University of San Agustin Graduate School in Iloilo City in the Philippines. In 2010 -2011 I collaborated with Sr. Michaela Suresca, OP to help provide scholarship for our poor but deserving students of the Dominican College of Iloilo (DCIL) located in Zarraga , Iloilo. As dean and President of DCIL, I was very grateful for the immediate and continuous response of generosity by the Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance. Many of our students graduated for their two year courses and presently working to help their families.
This year 2013-14, I am now residing in St. Dominic Girls' Home in Molo, Iloilo City together with nine young girls aging from nine to 16 years old. I am a doctor of psychology by profession and these girls need not only psycho-spiritual help but also financial and academic assistance. I heard from Sr. Suresca that the DCIL scholars are still provided for in their academic scholarship. Moreover, she recounted to me how this Alliance had been helping the St. Dominic Girls Home for many years. The girls were provided with toiletries and books. I hope and pray that this generous group would continue helping financially by providing for their scholarship in their basic education. Two of these girls are in the elementary level while seven are in the secondary level of the Holy Rosary Academy, a few meters in front of our Home. I am also an organist and our girls would like to form a choir and even play musical instruments such as guitar, organ or ukelele. We hope that these girls would be able to develop their God-given talents through the help of the members and donors of this great Alliance of Mary. May our dearest Lord and our Blessed Mother continue to bless and specially protect all the generous members and donors as well as those beneficiaries of this Missionary Alliance for the greater honor and glory of God our Loving Father.
Praise the Lord!
I have been acquainted with the Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance much more with sister Mila Ricafranca, a very close sister of mine. This organization became part of my life as a parish priest. I started to know the Alliance and sis. Mila when I was in my Parish, St. Vincent Ferrer Parish, San Vicente, Palawan. The lives of my parishioners in San Vicente were alleviated because their financial assistance was used in our parish program. I was also assigned as a Parish priest of St. Therese, Aborlan, Palawan, San Jose Puerto Princesa City, San Miguel Parish, Puerto Princesa City and all my parish assignments were very fruitful and successful. Me and my parishioners were able to establish the Ministrong Layko ng Komunyon, Piggery, Parish Catechists, Religious store and all of these were established because of this organization, Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance, was with me.
Now in my present parish assignment the Mary Queen of All Nations is helping me establishing the Basic Ecclesial Community (BEC) here in Quezon, Palawan. This program includes scholarship, Livelihood and the Parish Library. Now they are sending books and library materials, Religious articles, rosaries, vitamins and used clothes for our poorest of the poor, mass intentions and others. We are and what we are now is because of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance and because of our sister Mila Ricafranca who has a big heart for the priest assigned in Missionary Amen.

I know Sister Merla Ricafranca of Mary of All Nations Missionary Alliance of Reservoir Avenue, Dover New Jersey, U.S.A. The Alliance and Sister Merla Ricafranca are very caring, loving especially to the needs of our least brothers and sisters here in Palawan. We are one of the many beneficiaries of the Alliance since the 80's. They helped us and my people when I was the Parish Priest of St. Vincent Ferrer Parish, St. Therese of the Child Jesus Parish, St. Joseph Parish, St. Michael Archangel Parish and till now at the Immaculate Conception Parish here in Quezon, Palawan, Philippines. They help the parish by sending used clothes, slightly used materials, books, rosaries, food and others. They help our people especially the poorest of the poor by means of scholarship to some elementary pupils and high school students. They helped in our livelihood program for the poor, the marginalized and the forgotten of the society. For the past four years, they helped our Immaculate Conception Parochial School by sending slightly used books in our library and other materials. They support the needs of our Parish Office until now. Here in our present parish, they help us by building our new Parish Rectory, send slightly used clothes to our natives of the town, medicines and vitamins, intention masses and many others. For the past three years, they helped our two seminarians undergoing their formation in the two seminaries. One is at the Philosophy department of Seminario de San Jose, Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines and the other one at the Theology Department of St. Joseph Regional Seminary, Jaro, Iloilo City, Philippines. They are giving an amount of $1,000 each seminarian. They helped and continue helping our Basic Ecclesial Community Program of our Parish for the least fortunate parishioners who are sufferings, sick and abandoned, many disturbed youths, the deaf without Christian instructions who are members of our BEC Program. They help us transform our BEC Program with the arm -- a better quality of life and to alleviate life conditions of our poor people.
It is indeed very inspiring to realize that sister Merla and the Alliance are there as our benefactors endowed with a mature faith and generosity who could see the need and even the urgency of sharing their material treasures for the worthy cause. Because of Sis. Merla and the Alliance, we have realized that the vision of people total human and spiritual development is not after all hard to achieve, if there are others like sister Merla and the Alliance who are willing to hold hands with us.

I have ben a donor to this organization for the past three years. Their philosophy of helping the poorest of the poor with 100 per cent of their donation impressed me. When I learned of their many projects that they finance and how carefully they keep tract of every project,and every cent that is spent. I've attended a few of their meetings and have seen the many E-mails they receive asking for help. The self-reliance projects alone are inspiring. The "thank you" letters, pictures and E-mails tell a very moving story of how money well-spent can go a long way. They finance small projects that can reach or benefit the most people. They give the word "Charity" real meaning.
Ten of us in school in Uganda are very grateful to this organization. This organisation has helped us a lot through Fr. Pontius Bandua, thanks to Sister Merla. We hope to get more support from this organisation to continue with our education.
Speaking of charity, I don't think there is no other great person who can personify this other than Merla Ricafranca who is the founder of Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance in Dover, New Jersey. Come to think of it, she herself could have benefited from its great work since she had been aflicted with Cerebral Palsy since the day she was born; but instead, she offered herself up to the service of the Lord in helping those more disadvantaged than she was by sacrificing her meager income to help the poor helpless familiies in the third world countries and among them was of course, the Philippines where she came from. Then as soon as she was able to get a few members who were willing to give thier time and effort for such a wonderful cause, then it gradually extended to India, Bolivia, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, and so many other third world countries in desperate need of help. Mind you, the workers are volunteers who do not get paid for the work that they do including sending packages ot rosaries, books, school supplies as well as toiletries and even some viamins to the poor under nourished children of the villages. With the contributions it gets of which 100% goes to the missions, they are able to provide toilets for sanitation as well as chapels for places of worshipin the villages which are served by the number of ordained priests in the diferent provinces. Actually, there is much more work to be done but that sometimes become impossiblr to do with the limited funds it has. Only with God's help and the generosity of our much needed donors will His will be done on us.

I am sure the Holy Spirit must have led me to know Merla, the founder of Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance and its wonderful works. At first I was not fully aware of the kind of organization it was until I started attending the monthly meetings. With just a handful of members, great things have been accomplished by the Alliance over the years by inviting a few donors who could spare a few hundred dollars so that we can wire some money to help some poor seminarians finish school and be ordained to the preisthood. Not only that but we also mail out much needed books and school supplies to poor students who do not have the means and resources they need. The families are able to start a lot of self help projects from breeding farm animals and growing and selling them so that they have some source of income. I really admire Merla for her unbelievable efforts in helping our poor brothers and sisters in the third world countries like India, Bolivia, the Philippines,etc. I can just imagine how much more that this non profit organization would be able to do if only it has all the funds it needs to share the world. I think Merla has become our modern day Mother Theresa with all the works she does.
This organization had very humble roots in my parish in Morristown, NJ, USA A concerned parishioner saw suffering,figured out how to help and has worked for years to make sure that every dollar goes to those who need it. You can't get much better than that.
This charity is one of the only charities that uses every dollar, every cent that donors donate to help people. Merla uses the money to help the poor all over the world to build schools, dig wells, buy cows or seeds to empower people with self-sufficiency projects such as raising pigs, goats, chickens, cows, sheep, buffaloes, sewing and knitting machines, agricultural and gardening tools and fertilizers, carpentry tools, fishing boats and fishing nets, rickshaw and tricycle van for transportation service.
Her work is amazing.
this organization helps the really poor all over the world and all donated monies go to aiding people in need. whatever the priests need in a particular area they get. This icludes priest vestments, school supplies for the children, etc.
If there is any good hearted soul out there looking for a great non profit organization to support for what ever gift you can afford to share with, it is Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance of Dover, New Jersey. I myself have been a witness to the numerous calamities that has happened to the Philippines and have heard of the tremendous effort that the Alliance is doing to extend aid to the poor of the poorest in other countries. Its founder, Merla Ricafranca has been the soul and brains of this wonderful organization. Considering that she herself is handicapped with Cerebral Palsy since birth, she had started a one person ministry to a dedicated group of about 13 people who sends relief regularly to our poor brothers and sisters in the third world countries. Here is but a few examples of the several corporal works of mercy that they extend to them with whatever they have received from a few faithful donor list that they have managed to have contact with over the years:
For a starter, Mrela had been looking after a bedridden person who eats and sleeps in a small bed made of bamboo and wood. A lot of times, this small island gets davastated with heavy rains from the typhoons. Needless to say, the bed gets swept away from its resting place to nowhere since it is very light even with the poor person in residence on it. So Merla had asked somebody to please improvise something to make the bed stable. Lo and behold, a good hearted person had enforced the bed with iron so it stays in place. Such a gesture of love emanates from Merla that she can be a copy cat of Mother Theresa in action. Then her biggest gift is her big idea of promoting self-sifficiency projest to the people of the villages so that they are able to rise above poverty and fend for themselves and their families. Her good work really started when she tried to help some poor seminarian to finish school and get ordained which multiplied to several preists that now serve the spiritual needs of the villagers. With this kind of work that are being accomplished by Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance, I really think it should be voted as the Greatest Non Peofit Organization there is.
Women's Welfare Association (WWA) is a charitable organization working in India. Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance supported WWA for supporting the rural poor children for their education and livelihood of their families. It was a wonderful experience to partner with MQANMA for helping the poor and marginalized people in rural villages of Wayanad district of Kerala state in India. I wish all success and prayers for the genuine service rendering by MQANMA
This is Rayapu Reddy from India.Thank for the chance to write about Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance. The sisters are doing wonderful work.
I am very thankful for Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliancde in their way of helping missionaries like me. They have been helping me in carrying my missions reaching to very far prisons and jauks inb the Philippines providing me with funds in order for me to buy for the needs of the prisoners I am visiting in buying medicines for the sick prisoners who are sick with fever, skin diseases, cough, diarrhea, and other sickness. Trough the money they are sending me I use them in buying for letter envelopes and writing papers in which the prisoners can write to their loved ones, milk and chocolate powder,laundry soaps to wash the dirty clothes of the prisoners and the clean their prison cells, bath soaps, candies, biscuits, and other necessities of the prisoners I buy in the nearest stores in the prisons.Sis. Merla Ricafranca, the one in charge visited me in the Philippines and sees my missions and even distribute rosaries and other spiritual materials for the spiritual needs of the prisoners. This is my commitment to God going to all the prisons when God saved me from death in the prison and have me be a missionary sharing the love and mercy of God to the prisoners. I hope that you can make Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance be given the number one to ber supported as they are sacrificing their whole life to many missions all over the world and they are working with in their heart to alleviate the sufferings of many people in the world and help missionaries lioke me do works to help the suffering people. May God reward you for your great efforts helping many and God has great reward. I hope you can give priority to Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance asa they work non stop all over the world helping poor people. Manuel Navoa.
Mary Queen of All Nations (MQAN) is dedicated to their mission of serving the poor. I understand that 100% of the money contributed to MQAN is used to help people living in poverty. The organization pays no salaries and all administrative costs are absorbed by the Board of MQAN. A charity in all senses of the word - serving the poor in India, Uganda, & Rwanda and elsewhere that is giving people the tools to better their lives.
It is gratifying to know that a great nonprofit organization exist under the Banner of Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance. It is really amazing how such an organization can do such marvelous deeds for the needy. The fact that its members are mostly volunteers and therefor do not get paid for their services is inself worthy of the great phrase and admiration from anyone. But I think what makes this organization great is that it gives 100% of whatever it gets from the donors who are kind and generous enough to share the gifts they themselves are blessed with. Not only that but Merla, who is the founder of the Alliance herself absorbs all administrative costs it incurs including all shipping fees and charges for delivering the much needed supplies like books and school supplies for the children, sewing machines for the widows to sew clothes for the poor children, providing rice subsidies and cultivating the land for them to grow crops and raise farm animals for them to multiply for their own resources. If the Allliance can manage to do all these with the very limited funds they have right now, I can just imagine what a great job they can do in the Lord's vineyard simply by caring for the poorpeople.
In a world that we are living were the gap between the poor and the rich is increasing, an organization like the Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance will not only help those in desperate need but also they will make sure that the opportunity to transform a person's life forever is real.
The purpose of this organization embodies the ideals that Jesus asked us to live by -- "Spread the Word of God!" It is clear that this non-profit's volunteers selflessly give their time, faith and resources to assist our fellow brothers and sisters in third-world countries. God Bless.
i have seen the work done by this charity in developing nations and wholeheartedly endorse Merla and the charities' projects.
I have been a donor to this charity for the last few years. I am very pleased to say that every penny donated has been sent to very good causes. Merla works very hard to make sure those that need it most receive support.
I have been an occasional donor to this non-profit organization for almost three decades. It provides help and offers hope to the most desperate people in the third world countries. It is a very small missionary alliance founded and run by Merla Ricafranca who has dedicated all her life helping out the poorest of the poor of our brothers and sisters. She was born with a physical disability and will be celebrating her 75th birthday in March 2014. I have high hopes that she will get more funding for her organization to be able to go on funding self sufficiency projects for the very poor and providing assistance to people who are deprived of basic human needs.
This group has been her (Merla Ricafranca) heart and soul for many years and it shows in her dedication and commitment in helping others all over the world. She has become God's hand in feeding, clothing, educating and spiritually enriching so many lives. All the money she received is used 100% towards helping the poor. All other costs come out of her pocket. She has sacrificed so much and does so with a willing heart.
I support this charity because my cousin Fr John Heusser was a supporter and in his memory I continue to support this charity he thought was worthy of his time! Keep up the great work!

I am Stanislaw, a donor and member of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance. I am very proud of the Founder of this organization, Merla, who is a big part of my life. From the very moment I met her, I nominated her as my guardian angel. She is my sister-in-Christ. From the moment of her birth, she is a gift from heaven. She was born without any sign of life, but after baptism, life came back to her. As an effect of this traumatic birth, she was afflicted with cerebral palsy. Just imagine a person like Merla. She visited many poor countries and tried to help the poor families, communities, seminarians and students providing education, basic necessities, self-sufficiency projects to help the poor come up in life to have better life, health, housing, medical needs and sanitation. From the bottom of my heart, I am asking generous people for donations (every penny counts) to help the poor. 100% of the donations goes to help the poor rise above poverty. My guardian angel, Merla, shoulders all the operational expenses and she runs the operation in her own house, which I call Jesus' house. Because when I come to her house, I always feel the presence of Jesus around us. Thank you and God bless you all. Your brother-in-Christ, Stan.
Hi! I'm Conie..one of the recepients of St. Dominic Girls Home here at Molo, Iloilo City Philippines. An institution for homeless girls and orphans.

Dear Sister Merla M. Ricafranca, I had been a missionary from 1960 to 2007.Of this I spent 18 years in North East India where I began the first diocesan seminary that has given to the Church one Archbishop and two Bishops. A young boy whom I selected to join the priesthood became the Archbishop of Guwahati, in Assam,India.For the past six years after retiring from Yemen, the terrorist Islamic country to work for the Church, I was trying to help poor seminarians who want to study and to become priests and thus make the people better. I must say that Merla M. Ricafranca director of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance came to my \assistance and she with her limited means assisted about 120 seminarians to be priests. I wish and reccomend her organisation to every non profit organisation to be generous to her Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance that will help many to become priests who will, make a real change in society.. the need of the day. Wishing all the best, Father Matthew Uzhunnalil s.d.b

Dear Merla M. Ricafranca, Director MARY QUEEN OF ALL NATIONS MISSIONARY ALLIANCE,
I write from the major seminary of the Salesians of Don Bosco, Bangalore Province, South India. This review is just to tell you how appreciative are the 25 seminarians for whom with great sacrifice you have sent some help for their future studies that will lead them to the priesthood. without your help they will not be able to continue their theological studies. Now the 16 Deacons are getting ready for their ordination in December 2013. They are all praying for you and for your organization that made this help possible.
With grateful hearts they will ascend the altar and while thanking God for the gift of the Priesthood, they will be asking God to bless you and all those who help you in any way to find this financial help for the seminary students here.
As you know, there are 295 students (Priests, Brothers and Sisters) from various dioceses and various Congregations doing their higher studies at this seminary
We can never thank you enough for the tremendous effort that you make to find funds and thus help us.
May God bless you, and all those who cooperate with you in this noble task abundantly.

For the past 29 years the Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance has been doing just what Pope Francis is telling the entire Catholic Church to do....pay attention to the poor.
I admire one facet of the Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance plan....to encourage self-sufficiency projects....to enable poor people to find a way to make a living, and with dignity.
All they need is a hand up, not really a hand out.

I have been associated with Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for 15 years and I constantly marvel at all that is accomplished to help the very poor people in so many countries, especially throughout the Third World. And the amazing thing is that this is done with very little funds.
The organization was founded 28 years ago by a woman who had cerebral palsy since birth. She wanted to join a convent and do missionary work for the very poor. Several times, ,her applications to join an order of nuns were refused. so she started her own missionary work and dedicated her life to this task.
She developed her own constitution and formed board of helpers. The Alliance received episcopal approval and a spiritual director was appointed. They also received tax exempt status from the government and make reports to them every year. Donors are kept abreast of all their donations for tax purposes. Accomplishment reports are done a few times a year. Every penny is recorded and is use in many poor missions throughout 40 countries. The funds are used for small projects, many of them self-sufficiency ones. The organization sometimes gives funds to buy tools so that the people can work with them to help themselves. For example, they buy fishing nets to go fishing,, shovels and rakes to work in the field to produce food for their families. Other times, we give funds for livestock for the people to raise and sell to earn money to help themselves. We also provide funds to buy cows, goats, sheep, chickens and pigs to multiply and sell them and the cows and goats to provide milk for the people. I could go on and on telling of the accomplishments of this Alliance. Our
Lord has certainly blessed us. We know that Our Lord will provide for us to continue despite the small amount of funds that is available to us. But we also know that Jesus has told us that what we do to the least of our brothers, we do unto Him.
If you care to know more about this organization, you can email us at mqanmission@gmail.com to receive our newsletters and our accomplishment reports.
G00 bless, Deacon Roger

I have heard and seen about this organization how they help other countries who needs help better their life. They even use their own pocket money to help them for the better. I am proud that these organization/ people do exist, all it takes is a helping hand to make someone's life a little better.
This missionary alliance is has helped many countries all over the world. Just one simple act of kindness can influence many people to do the same.
This organization truly reaches out to everyone. It's amazing how one impact can really help a lot of people.
This is a very worthwhile organization, reaching out to people to help them become self-sufficient. This approach builds people up instead of keeping them in line for a handout.

I am very pleased to endorse this organization. It serves at the grassroots level, touching people through person to person contact. It reaches out to real world needs at the individual or local community. There is good feedback from the recipients. All donations are used to help these people. It is like the story of the mustard seed, it seems small but it has grown and has produced abundant fruit. And by their fruits you will know them.
No income or salaries taken from proceeds. Contributions and donations are truly given to the poor all over the world.
am fr. joseph martin kibeti from the archdiocese of tororo, i thank this organisation for all the charitable activities they are doing to support the people of God and may the good Lord bless this organisation abundantly.
I am a catholic priest from India. I know this organisation "Mary Queen of All Nations Alliance" for more then a decade.They have been supporting for my mission , especially for educating 10 the poor and orphan children for a decade. It is because of their continuous support the poor and orphan children are educated and there is a lot of change in their lives. Merla M.Ricafranca, the founder had been a great support for my mission to reach out to the poor and needy people in my parish. They are doing a wonderful service to the humanity. I acknowledge their financial support to us with sincerity and honesty.
Sr Merla with her Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance, has done wonderful things to my people in the parish. She is so human and understanding. I really admire her spirit of charity. I regard Sr Merla and acknowledge her great support all through my priestly life and in my mission. I along with my people are ever grateful to Sr Merla. She brought Jesus into our lives. She helped many school going children towards their school fee and uniform, clothing to aged men and women and with motor cycle and mass intentions to me. Though we cannot reward her goodness towards us, all that we can say is Sr Merla, we love you and we thank you. May God ever bless her and her tribe may increase.

I am a catholic priest from India. I have been associated with Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for the past 8 years. I have a very good personal experience of this charitable organization. They have been helping me almost every year with my mission among the poor with the mass intentions, charitable works like distribution of sewing machines, bed sheets and clothing to the widows, dress to the poor seminarians, school uniforms, school fees, stationery to the poor school-going children. Of these children, many of them are orphans and school drop outs because of their inability to meet expenses towards the education. Because of the generosity and continual support of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance they could continue their education. I am amazed at their sheer generosity helping the poorest of the poor with the limited funds. They also helped me with two-wheeler motor cycle as I go to mission stations for the celebration of the sacraments. We appreciate and grateful to Founder Sr Merla and the donors for their selfless charity towards us. I wish and pray that this organization which is serving the cause of the poor may continue to grow with the blessings of the Lord.

I want to acknowledge al that has been done by Merla M. Ricafranca and Missionary Alliance to promote the work of Evangelization in Nigeria, especially in the poorest of the poor areas and by assisting to feed hungry children in Nigeria. Merla began by using her personal salary as a medical technoligist by sending us supplies such as deep freezers, clothing for children, rosaries, bibles, spiritual books, chalices and ciboria, chasubles, crucifixes, and medals for our Apostolate. When she visited us in Nigeria in 1992, she funded the building of our nutrition / clinic for the malnourished, sent up to $300.00 per quarter to buy food for the children. Part of the money was used to buy seeds and feed for agriculture. She halped pay school fees for seminariens. Though Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance is a small organization, they have done a lot to help in the field of Evangelization, to feed, train, and build houses for the poorest of the poor in Nigeria.
This is a great charity that creates and promotes self-sustaining projects to many of the most poor nations. They really do well for others in a way that helps others learn do do well for themselves. Great organization!
This is a wonderful Charity! They truly promote many Self-Sustaining projects and provide a great "hand up" to some of the poorest people in 49 countries. I love the fact that 100% of the Donations recieved are really used for the the poor in helping with education, nutritional programs, housing and medical needs for many of the blind, disabled, orphaned , disadvantaged and mainourished. None of their donations are used for salaries or for administrative costs, which is another feature I love about this group! They are truly a source of HOPE for the Hopless!!! They are definitely deserving of a 5 Star rating in my book!!
This is an amazing mission where 100% of donations go directly to those who need it most. Merla Ricafranca is truly an inspiration who challenges us to live up to her example of caring for those who are in desperate need all over the world!
I am once again writing to positively put my review on the work of MQAN.
This week once again the Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance has come to the aid to help my people to uplift them from the state of desperation. This week the MQAN gave my parishioners 42 of them each a goat to help them to be self-sufficient. This work of MQAN is a recommendable work, because many of my people have now been help to live a human life due to the help from MQAN.
I am highly recommending the work of MQAN. May it have many more funds to help the poor of the word?
LONG LIVE MQAN to help more poor people.

100% of the donations goes to the most needy of causes. No administration fees are deducted form your donation dollars.
This charity delivers 100% of proceeds to help with educational, nutritional, housing and medical needs in 49 countries. The people involved actually care about helping and providing hope to those in need and volunteer their time, talents and expertise to give to those who need it most.
This is an amazing charity! 100% of their donations go to the poor! They have given HOPE to the hopeless, helping the blind, disabled, orphaned, disadvantaged and malnourished in 49 countries. God bless your work!
This charity is\ highly regarded in our area. Mary Queen of all nations missionary alliance addresses needs both large and small for the poor. 100% of donations go to the poor - not all non-profits can say that! Their reach is 49+ countries strong!
A charity that supports some of the neediest causes worldwide and connects with people on a local level for the greatest impact. And all this with absolutely no overhead -- every dollar goes to helping their clients.
Very impressed with the volunteers of this organization, which has absolutely no overhead costs, no salaries, no paid employees!
That's beautiful. Please see other reviews to hear about all their great work.
This non-profit has donated over $750,000 to the neediest causes imaginable. This charity takes no salary and its founder and board absorb all administrative costs, so 100% of donations are optimally used.
Just by giving 100% of all donations received by Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance, it certainly deserves to be named as one of the best nonprofit organizations there is. Not only that but I know that its members, volunteers especially its founder Merla, absorb all the administrative costs it incurs in just sending relief packages to the poor countries that deserve their help. I can just imagine how much more aid they can extend to these poor people if only they have all the means they can get to finance the various self-sufficiency projects that they sponsor. So please kindly extend your generosity to this wonderful organization. The best help I could think of right now is thier ability to donate for the schooling of several seminarians until they become ordained and minister to the spiritual and physical needs that are greatly needed by the very poor communities in the most remote areas of the provinces and villages. They are even able to provide bicycles or a cheap motorcycle for the transportation of these preists who have no means to reach thse people. All the reward we ask for is the blessing and intercession of Our Lady in the great efforts that we do for our poor brethren because He Himself said that "whatsoever we do to the least of My brethren, you do unto me".
Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance is the only organization that helps a lot of rc schools and students who have a financial problem.
Dear Sir,
I have the honor to apply in your organization as one of your scholar as what I have heared from my classmate that you are giving a scholarship program, I am Merdiquinio Ortega Jr., a freshmen student of Dominican College of Iloilo taking up BACHELOR OF SECONDARY EDUCATION, a working student since grade 5 but because of financial problem, my guardian could not send me to college.
If given me a chance to be one of your scholar, I do promised to maintain my grades in all my subjects and to excel in all learning areas and cooperate in the activities in said school.
Hoping for your approval regarding with my application.
Respectfully yours,
Merdiquinio
Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance is really a fantastic nonprofit organization. Its main purpose in helping the poor people in other countries is not just to give handouts but rather, help them get on their feet by encouraging them to take on self-help projects so that they can survive on their own like developing the land so that they can grow crops for food as well as raising animals like pigs and chicken for them to multiply and be sold for their own resources. Not only do the people keep themselves busy but the most important thing is that they become self-suffiecient and witness for themselves the product of their labor which is good for their own sel-esteem and develpoment. In doing so, the physical and personal as well as the spiritual needs of the people are being addressed by this wonderful nonprofit organization which is able to generate a full accounting of every single penny it receives from its donos thru the very detailed and accurate reporting to the Board by its founder and members.
I live in Randolph and met Merla at Sacred Heart Church, Dover since 2009. She is the one who brings me to Church everyday. She talks about the needs of the poor and the works of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance that gives 100% of donations to the poor around the world. This organization has helped so many poor people rise above poverty and are now able to support themselves, send their children to school and provide their families with food and clothing and some also health insurance for their families.

This organization helps a lot of poor people in many poor countries around the world. They help the sick, the blind, the orphans, the homeless, the seminarians and missionaries. She started this organization with her own personal money. Later, God sent her help to get her organization as a non-profit recognized by the Federal government, so that people can assist her to help many more people.
Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance was founded 29 years ago here at Assumption Parish in Morristown when Bishop Jacob came here with the Pope's blessing. One of our parishioners founded th is charity which began supporting three seminarians and has grown to an organization that has supported missionaries all over the world and has donated over $750,000 to the most needy causes. This 501c3 charity takes no salary and its founder, Merla Ricafranca and the board absorb all administrative costs. Consequently, 100% of all donations are used for direct aid to charity.
Great charity that promotes self-sustaining projects and delivers 100% of donations (i.e. no salaries are taken and they absorb all admin costs).
I am so impressed with this organization and its mission. I am particularly impressed with the fact that 100% of ALL donations go to their good works, certainly unique in the non profit world. I would highly recommend supporting this worthy cause.
-Ginger Brennan
I have known founder for most of the years this non profit has been in existence. I am touched by the tireless efforts made to follow Christ command to Love one Another. It has not been an easy journey but this organization labored relentlessly all for the Glory of God. I applaud all that they do.
I am pinky allado a friend of one student that you are helping with in the Donimican College of Iloilo..For this I am thanking you for your generosity in sharing your blessings..more power and God Bless..
thank you very much for helping our school.. your support is very helpful to our students especially on the books you have given..by the way i am Sr. Ma. Estela , OP
These folks have won multiple awards from local charitable organizations that work with them. Their hearts are in the right place and they are extremely dedicated to helping the poor.
Coming from the Philippines, I am a witness to the poverty of its people who depend on the help of the more fortunate individuals who are able to get jobs and education and are able to sustain themselves. I am aware what Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance have accomplished in these regard. It first started to help seminarians until they become fully ordained and teach cathechism to the laity of the region who in turn teach the children. Sewing machines are made available to the women who made clothes for the students. School supplies and books are also secured for them through the contributions of its donors. With these, they are also able to build chapels and even provide toilets for sanitation. The men are able to raise farm animals and let them multiply and sell them so that they are able to have their own resources. With the help of rice subsidies, they are able to put food on the table. 100% of all donations to this great nnonprofit organization are all accounted for and reports are expected from all who are helped. Unfortunately, there are several needs but its funds are limited.
A great non-profit that gives all donations to where they are needed most ... the unfortunate people who are unable to provide for themselves.
What more can be said about a charity that is 100% optimally used, and serves such worthy causes ?
The poorest of the poor are served, with no administrative costs. This is unique.
Helps the third world missions achieve their goals of providing for the most deserving and neediest people. 100% of their proceeds goes directly to the benefit of those who need help.
100% of donations are optimally used, charity takes NO salaries! They support third world missionaries helping the REALLY needy of this world.
I know some of the volunteers. They are devoted, faithful and successful in helping the poor. May God continue to Bless their work! prcprayer
Today is Mission Sunday and and what better day than to express our appreciation for the Missionary Alliance of Mary Queen of all Nations. Its long time missionary work extends to all parts of the world where help is given to the poorest of the poor who benefit from the prayers and generosity of its donors and volunteer members whose only consolation are the testimonies given by those who have been helped. If only it could have more funding to help its great cause, how much more help could be extended by such a great organization!Their source of joy to the service they do are the multiple testimonies of the fruits of their labors through the progress reports, letters and pictures that it receives from priests, bishops, sisters, children as well as the blind. Thus, a complete and a very detailed accounting is recieved and reported to the board and its members. Nedless to say that 100%of all donations goes to the missions that makes Mary Queen of All Nations a great nonprofit organization.
This organization has been veryhelpful to the needy people around India. They have helped many poor people to come up in lives and to have proper nutrition and also helping the simple people to live in faith and helping in constructing churches
This non-profit organization provides help to the poor people in the third world countries where poverty and malnutrition are most prevalent. The help is provided by providing financial assistance to initiate self-sufficiency projects which over time can provide a means of livelihood for the recipients. School children are provided with supplies and financial assistance to help them finish their grade and high school education. A small donation to Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance will change peoples lives in that part of the globe where poverty is widespread.
This Alliance is a charity for the poorest of the poor. We review each request carefully and verify each one as carefully as possible. Since our funds are very limited we try to help the most needy with projects that will do the most good for the most people. Our director foots all the cost for office supplies and shipping expenses so that every penny that is donated goes for the projects the board deems worthy. For the board member and volunteers our rewards come in the form of letters of "thanks",pictures of projects completed,students graduatings,seminarians taking their final orders,children equiped with school supplies just to mention a few of our rewards. Our meeting always end with aprayer and wish that we could do more.
if you want to meet the True helping hand of God to people who have dire needs both physical and spiritual around the world , this is the organization that epitomize such deeds....

Voting for this non profit organization Im am happy to see that all donations go straight to the poor
My good friend told me about this organization and as a fellow missionary who cares greatly for working amongst the poorest of the poor, my heart goes to any organization, especially one dedicated to Our Lady, that does such wonderful work! May God bless you and give you all the strength and support that you need to continue doing the wonderful work you do.
I discovered this nonprofit through a parishoner. I am very impressed that they donated 100% of funds to their charities. As a catechist, I plan to work with Mary Queen of all Nations to engage the 7th graders in fundraising to help with their work.
God bless this organization for their unselfish dedication to uplift the life of the poor people. Our heartfelt gratitude for your help in our apostolate for the poor, for the orphaned children of St. Dominic Girls' Home and scholarship grant for the poor students of the Dominican College of Iloilo. I am sr. Jocelyn Pecto, O.P.
Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance is doing a great job for the poor and for god. Thank you for helping our congregation in our apostolate to the poor in the Philippines I am Sr. Mary Rachel Plaza, O.P.
I have known this non-profit organization for more than two decades helping out the poorest of the poor
in various parts of the third world countries: Bolivia, India, Philippines, Dominican Republic Peru, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Cuba, Costa Rica and Tanzania. This alliance does not have
a paid staff, all are volunteers, and the proceeds from donations are all distributed 100% to the needy
helping them out with self-sufficiency projects to enable them to have a livelihood and income. For instance, sewing machines are provided to help young girls learn the skills and knowledge of sewing
which can provide them with an income from the sale of their products.
The goal of this missionary alliance is to help our poor brothers and sisters around the world, have a better life, better health, and have the opportunity to rise above poverty thru education and self-sufficency projects. Poor students who otherwise won't be able to get an education, are given financial assistance so that they are able to attend elementary and high school. A small amount of donation goes a long way in the third world countries to fund schools and orphanages with their needs and provide self sufficiency projects to help the poorest of the poor have a means of livelihood and rise above poverty.
I love that this organization distributes 100% of its donations to needy people around the world. The volunteers are truly walking in Jesus' footsteps. Praise God!
More power and blessing to Mary Queen of all Nations missionary alliance for helping us in our apostolate for the poor here in the Philippines particularly to our orphanage and the poor students of Dominican College of Iloilo.
It's a great blessings to all Dominican Sister here in the Philippines to receive help/donation from the Mary Queen of all Nation, Missionary Alliance to help us in our apostolate.

Thank you fMissionary Alliance for the donations of wheelchairs to our sisters in the infirmary. I am Sr. Ana Ramos, O.P. a Dominican Sister of the most Holy Rosary of the Philippines and a registered nurse assigned in the Sisters infirmary for our aged Sisters in the Motherhouse. More blessings to the organization.
Our group at St. Mary's Rosary Society in Denville has supported Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for over 15 Years. You know when you donate to this cause all the money goes to the poor.MQUAN is an amazing group who helps the "Poorest of the Poor". They were doing on the job training long before it was popular. They educate and check on their clients to make sure money is spent wisely. Merla's story of how she founded this group is incredible. It is a true testimony of her joy and love for the missions. MQUAN deserves to win this competition as they would be able to reach many more people.
More power and blessings to Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for their selfless efforts to help the poor. Way back in 2004, I was assigned in Dumalag, Capiz, Philippines. We received from The organization an amount for small business capital. Together with Sr. Michaela, the Principal and Superior of our School, we distributed to several families capital for their projects. Some on bag-making, Hog or poultry raising, seeds for gardening, sofa or cushion -making. A capital was also given to catechists to put up sari-sari store so they could use their gain for their fare in going to school. These had helped a lot those families. Thank you for helping us help the poor in our midst. Sr. Consejo Basal, O.P.
I am Priscila Sotito, the mother of Val Leonero, the new recipient from the kindness of the MQAN missionary Alliance as a scholar. I knew the organization through my aunt Sr. Michaela Suresca, a Dominican Sister. I am a teacher with 5 children and I could hardly send Val to college. thanks to you kind people. I hope that Val could finish his college so he can help me send the other siblings to school. More power and blessings to the organization.
I had known this organization for many years now and I agree that they should get far exceeding 5 stars on this review. They had help so many indigent people that really need help and support to survive and not to depend on the government help. I highly will vote for this organization to be the top on the list.
I have been involved with several charitable organizations and worthy causes. However, I was awestruck by the simplicity of MQAN and its self sacrificing members who make every penny count for those to whom they reach out. Jim Cavanaugh is truly an apostle of the poor who lives that he preaches and teachings.
Fr. Ken Lasch
Just to know Jim Cavanaugh is proof enough of the goodness of this charity. His scope and committment means success and blessings to all their endeavors. I heartily support and speak for the poor, ...... all of whom are touched by the helping hands of great volunteers.

Ditto, from husband, Tom. Please count us as two supporters.
Want to donate to a charity but don't know which one? Please consider Mary Queen Of All Nations Missionary Alliance! They are a wonderful organization that takes NO salaries and covers their own administrative costs. 100% off their donations are distributed to the orphaned, disadvantaged and malnourished all over the world. it is the non-stop 24 hour commitment and hard work that keeps the Alliance going!
On the behalf of the Orphans were given pigs by MQAN, I would like to write a review on the work of MQAN. We, as the orphans before helped by MQAN, we were in bad state, poor and desperate. But after given pigs, we can now afford to buy scholastic materials, those of us in school. We can pay our Insurance (Mutuelle de santé). In short we were uplifted from extreme poor poverty to a descent live.
Long live MQAN to help more poor people.
I am Celestin NDATIMANA on behalf of group of the orphans helped by Father Bernard
On behalf of the girls who were helped by MQAN. We are very grateful for the Alliance. We were the most unfortunate girls in the society. We did not have opportunity to continue school. We were left in society at the Mercy of the world. But when the MQAN gave us help in form of sewing machine, we trained how to use them. We were gave skills to use the machines. Now we, as group we are self employed. We earn some money to buy our daily necessities.
Thank you MQAN for restoring us to human dignity. May you have more ability to help the poor?
I am Donata NIZEYIMANA
On behalf of the girls helped by Father Bernard.
An amazing organization! They provide aid in so many ways. Educating and providing the tools to allow for perpetual self-help to many of the World's "poorest of the poor". Those they reach are often not able to express to us the magnitude of their gratitude, yet it is these exact group of people we must all reach out and help. It is our responsibility as Human kind. Continued Blessings upon Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance and those who support Her cause.
On Behalf of widowers who were helped by MQAN : giving us a self-sufficient project of receiving a pig. We are happy to positively write a review on the work of MQAN. As widowers of 1994 genocide in Rwanda, we had lost everything economically and even hope of living. But when MQAN gave use help through self sufficient project by giving a pig each, that help restored our hope of living. Now we can afford food, clothes, Insurance (Mutuelle de santé).
Long living MQAN to help more poor people in third world.
I am Laurent NKOMEJE
On behalf of the widowers helped by Father Bernard.
I am really amazed by the reviews written by those people who have been helped by the charitable works of Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Allinace. I know I make my contributions to this wonderful organization but just recently realized the impact of the great things it has accomplished because it gives 100% of all donations to its cause and not only that, but it also absorbs its administrative costs by Merla, its founder out of her meager fixed income. Her great devotion to Our Lady has inspired all of us to continue to work in the vineyard of Our Lord for He had said: 'If you love Me, then feed the hungry, visit the sick, visit those in prison and cloth the naked". As handicapped as she is with Cerebral Palsy, she makes it a point to visit and see for herself the fruits of our labor which not only includes improved living conditions of the poor and infirm but also making sure that several of the seminarians who have been ordained as priests are ministering to those far away places where people are in dire need of help from physical as well as spiritual.
On the behalf the widows who were given help by the MQAN. I write a positive review on the work of the Alliance. We as widows of genocide of 1994 in Rwanda, we were in poor and desperate situation. We could not afford to buy food, we clothing’s, and pay Insurance (Mutuelle de santé), but after we were helped by the Alliance, giving us a pig each, we reared them, and sold the offspring’s, earring money, that we use to buy what we could not afford .
Long live MQAN. May you get more meanings to help more poor people to live a descent human life?

Thank you to all benefactors. Great is your work in helping the poor. There are still other children who benefitted but we lost contact with them. God bless us all.

Thank you so much. May God bless all your endeavors.
I am Sr. Dulce Corazon Bacosa, OP. from Dominican Sisters of the Most Holy Rosary of the Philippines. I am happy to receive a book from your organization.

Re : Positive Review on MQAN
I am one of the Church volunteers among 144 who were assisted by Mary Queen Of All Nations Missionary Alliance. Before we were assisted by Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary most of us could not afford metuelle (Health Insurance) in our Country. We would not afford to buy scholastic materials for our children and me in particular I have gained a lot from the assistance given to us by MQAN, through our Father Bernard. The self-sufficient project that was given to us has helped me much. Now I can afford most of the daily necessities because of the self-sufficient project that was given to us.
I can now sell the offspring of the goat I was given to meet my daily necessities and I now live a descent life due to the self-sufficient project.
Thanks to Mary Queen All Nations Missionary Alliance. May it continue to help more many people to live a descent human life? Long live “Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary”. May it get more help to help people in a third world to be up lifted to a descent human life? May God give you more more donors to be able to help more people like us?
Thank you Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance.

Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance It is a really very heart warming to hear from the people around the world who are being being helped by this wonderful nonprofit organization. I am amazed at how it can continue to do what is being done to the poor of the poorest around the different countries in the world.
My mother and I have been donating since the early 1980"s to this wonderfull organiization. The founder, Merla has always been very hardworking and dedicated to its goals.
Finally, in 2012 mom and I actually went to New Jersey to meet this fine lady and we had hands on contact with her organization and her way of life.
He whole home is consecrated to the Holy Trinity with beautiful statues and pictures. In her living room were many huge boxes filled with books, rosaries, religiious merchandise to send all over the world. Another corner had bags and boxes of religious stuff, collected and sorted to send out.
She attends Mass every day. She showed us all her Organization's financial books, Minutes, etc. are organized monthly and yearly. We attended a Meeting that was being held that Friday. We met other members of the Organization. Merla told us that she used to go and visit each of the places all over the world that she sends goods to to make sure the goods were getting to those in need. Thru the years her physical disability has encumbered her, so her trips have decreased. However, she has secure people in the areas that she sends the goods to and they readily acknowledged receipt of shipments. At any time, anyone may inquire a statement from any stated area of where donations were sent and Merla can provide a letter of receipt and what/who received them. Many are every so grateful and look forward to her shipments.
Mom and I were very proud to meet Merla. For years also, we make mission rosaries and we send hundreds to Merla to send out to the areas of need in the world. We read many grateful letters sent to her from people all over the world benefiting from what she sends to them. There also were letters from priests, sisters and Bishops commending her Organization. She does so much with all that she receives and all goes directly to the Organization. She uses alot of her own finances to cover postal costs, etc. Her focus remains in getting to the needy her collected religious goods so they can use them.
We give the highest rating because she and her organization deserve it.
Today, I had the chance to read all the reviews written by everyone for Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance. It is really very heart warming to hear from the people around the world who are being being helped by this wonderful nonprofit organization. I am amazed at how it can continue to do what is being done to the poor of the poorest around the diferent countries in the world. With whatever it is able to collect from its donors, it is able to feed families through rice subsidy programs, even help build houses so they can have roofs over their heads to encouraging them in raising animals that multiply to maintaining some self-help projects like cultivating their own farms or providing a few sewing machines for the women to sew clothes to those who have none. If only they could get more donors so that they can continue to do their great work which serves the least fortunate of us.
Sr. Ray Ann Sudaria, O.P. , A ReEd coordiator of Mary Immaculate Academy, Calinog, Iloilo, Philippines thank MQAN for the rosaries sent to us.

Through this mary-queen-of-all-nations-missionary-alliance organization we are helping so many marginalized people. This organization is helping us so much. That is the reason our people are benifited so much and later they themselves trying their best to stand on their own feet. Sincere I can tell this organization is tatally non profitable organization. Thanks
This is a folllow-up review to a previous one I had submitted a while ago because I just happen to read a back issue of the Beacon about Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance and did not realize that it really have been operating that long. I did not think that so much work can be accomplished by a small number of members whose main resource for its operations is just from the generosity of its donors. I am aware that through this and only this, that they are able to help a lot of seminarians to complete their studies and become priests who are then assigned in the remote provinces. At one time, I was told by one of the board members that they were even able to procure transportation for a priest with a simple motorcycle becuse that was the only means he can get to this very remote town in order to celebrate mass, baptize and teach at the same time.
Denis wrote: I can think of no organization that has better objectives than MARY QUEEN OF ALL NATIONS MISSIONARY ALLIANCE. Their success is recurring and multiplies over time.
Merla Ricafranca is the founder and director of Mary Queen of all Nations Alliance. As Bishop Emeritus of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Paterson in which Merla lives and conducts her extensive ministry in support of poor people in a dozen or so countries, I know her to be totally committed to helping them to help themselves and to meeting their immediate needs as well, and I support her. For families she buys chickens and cows. For children, she provides books and paper. For job seekers, she makes sure they are suitably clothed. She does such things and much more. Whatever people need and she can secure for them, she does. She reminds me of Mother Theresa who said: “We cannot all do great things; we can only do small things with great love.”

My mom happens to be a member of a great non profit organization called Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance in Dover, New Jersey. She is a nurse and is geared to charitable work. However, I cannot fathom the great deal of charitable duties she is accomplishing by not only helping mail collected and donated items like reading materials, pencils, used vestments for priests, religious articles, etc. not only to the Philippines but also to other countries in need of such. She told me that her friend Merla shops at Staples whenever they have items on sale and practically begs for some free and unused items or overstock items like notebooks and paper which the poor kids of impoverised places need. She even gets some samples of vitamins and other medications to send to the sick and infirm. She tells me that nobody gets paid for the work they do and even contributes herslf to the expenses that are encountered by mailing those articles to foreign countries. That is my mom. All for the sake of charity!
I am very proud to have known this wonderful Non profit organization just a town away from mine. My sister was the one who told me about Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance that has been existing for years in Dover, New Jersey. It was founded by a very devoted lady from the Philippines who is a handicap person yet was and is still able to do wonders for the missions throughout the impoverised countries of the world. From Bolivia, Nigeria,Kenya,Zimbawi,Tanzania,Columbia, Brazil, Uganda, Venenzuela, and several others who have heard the works of mercy of its members.
What is really amazing is that the charitable work of this organization does not take any salary and rely mainly on the generous contributions of its benefactors so that 100% of donations are given to the poor people in need. In fact I was told that the founder and its members absorb all administrative costs like the mailing of items like books, school supplies, even toiletries needed by the children and prisoners alike. The families start it off by doing self-help projects to help build their own resouces to survive.
This wonderful works of mercy really started at first by supporting only 3 seminarians, sisters and priests, yet trough the years, it has donated over $750,000.00 to the neediest causes that can be imagined from building houses of worship to simple housing and even toilets and water for sanitation.
The activity of this non-profit organization should be duplicated. In spite the odds of requesting donation to support this project, they have made sure that any monies sent to the recipient are well used to address their needs.
MY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS NONPROFIT CHARITY, MARY QUEEN OF ALL NATIONS MISSIONARY ALLIANCE HAS BEEN SPIRITUALLY UPLIFTING AND GRATIFYING. MS. MERLA RICAFRANCA HAS DEVOTED 30 YEARS UNSELFISHLY, , AND UNCEASINGLY, HER TIME , ENERGY , LOVE, AND SPIRIT TO THIS ORG. SHE IS AN INSPIRATION TO ALL. DESPITE HER OWN PAIN AND DISABILITIES , SHE WORKS TIRELESSLY FOR THE POOR AND DOWNTRODDEN AND THIS CHARITY USES ALL OF THEIR DONATIONS TO BENEFIT THE LESS FORTUNATE IN AREAS WHERE HELP IS NEEDED. GOD BLESS YOU MERLA FOR DEVOTION TO JESUS AND MOTHER MARY. RESPECTFULLY WITH LOVE. CONNIE TRASENTE
Hello my name is Sean and I am in 7th grade. I have met members of this organization many times. They help the poor and needy with 100% of the donations they get. Every single cent they get, they send that and more to the poor. Ms. Ricafranca is such a nice person. When I visited her last time, she had 5 big boxes in her house that she and others were packing to send to the missions in the Philippines. When I found out that they didn't have money to pay for packing and shipping and that Ms. Ricafranca uses her own personal money to pay for these expenses, I felt that I needed to help. So I donated my pocket money. I know that it was not enough, but atleast they could use it. I feel sad when I hear how some people especially children have no food to eat, they don't have books to read, and they don't have simple things like soap and toothpaste. I hope that you will donate to this organization too. Please help them so that they can help others in need.
I am a devout Catholic and try to give what I can to help those in needy and Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance (MQOANMA) is a one organization that truly helps the poverty stricken communities where it is needed most. I found out about this organization through a family friend and knows one of its members so I got a chance to hear first hand about the good work they are doing. God bless the MQOANMA organization always.
This organizations charity work is commendable. They were quick to deliver the funds, and being a volunteer organisation 100% the donations were provided to the needy.
hi my name is alvin w.xu of grade 7 of the ICPS QUEZON. and i only say this charity gives to the poor and for that i want thank them for all of that and may God bless all the people that is part of this organazition,
This charity serves the poor, helping them to rise out of their desperate poverty. They use 100% of their donations for the poor without taking any funds for administrative costs.
Mary Queen of All Nations serves all nations near and far. I am a Sister of Christian Charity in Mendham, NJ. My community has a mission in Manila, which serves women who are blind and handicapped. Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance has been generous in its support of our mission there. The Foundation has sent freight boxes full of personal toiletry items for the residents at Margaretha Home for the Blind in Manila. Individual members have also financially supported our mission with donations.
The members of the Alliance are constantly seeking out ways in which they can serve the mission of the Church near and far. Recently, one of the members of the Alliance approached me after the celebration of Eucharist and introduced himself to me and shared with me the many great works that they are funding and assisting. At a later point, he personally called me to extend the Alliance's willingness to come and visit our college in Mendham, NJ, Assumption College for Sisters, which is the only Sister Formation College in the United States. We have a unique mission of educating Religious Sisters for their service in the Church. We have opened our mission to include offering full scholarships to Sisters from the developing nations, which also includes room and board. He and the director of the Alliance immediately scheduled a personal visit to our college to ascertain our needs and see how they would be able to assist us in educating the Sisters from these developing nations. Here at Assumption College for Sisters, our motto is, "Teach a Sister, Touch the World." We are confident that Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance will help us make this goal a continuing reality by their generous and kind support of our mission.
Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance is a non-profit that is run by ALL VOLUNTEERS, now in their 29th year, no one in the organization have ever received any salary or any remuneration for the work done. 100% of all donations received are used for the poor. From the Director, who shoulders all the operational expenses, down to the members, all work done are voluntary and done out of their love for God and the poor. The goal is to help the poor rise above poverty and to know Christ who provides for everything. The poor is being assisted, not to be dependent on anyone, but to work hard to be able to stand on their own, become self-sufficient and once they are able to support themselves and their families, they in turn voluntarily try to also help another poor neighbor, to give them the same opportunity that they themselves received from MQAN.
One good example are the 30 widows in Rwanda, victims of genocide, who were provided with 30 pigs. The pigs multiplied and provided them with many piglets. They sold some of the piglets and from the money they earned, they were able to provide for their families, food, clothing and education of their children and even health insurance for the family. After they were able to rise above poverty, they in turn each help another widow by giving them piglets. This way they too could work hard and be able to rise above poverty. There are many other examples like this.
Another example are the students who were assisted in their education. Once they graduated and land in a good job, they in turn took care of the education of their siblings and some even tried to help other needy students in their educational needs.
In these ways, the work of the Alliance multiplied by itself. Where can you find a non-profit where the fruits of their labor multiplies? This non-profit is truly one of a kind. Where can you find a non-profit where all its members supports their own organization by giving their own donations to help out instead of taking from the donations for payment of their work? Where can you find an organization where all of its members goes to Mass and Holy Communion frequently, majority even daily, the source of their strength? Where can you find an organization that is run with utmost honesty, transparency and integrity, with pure and genuine LOVE for God and the poor?

I am Sem. Francis Joseph F. Macola, religion instructor in Immaculate Conception Parochial School and currently the elected president of the Teachers Club. On behalf of the ICPS Family I would like to thank the Mary Queen of All Nations for the generosity you've shown by sharing material resources the different kind of books, spiritual reading book catholic almanac, bible, and ect. These materials are very much beneficial because those materials will help us to guide and mold the ICPians to become mature in their faith like you. You serve as a model of generosity especially to the young ICPian.
The books (Religious and spiritual reading books, Pamphlets and prayer guide); the rosaries and other school materials you've sent to us were use by the elementary and high school students. To all the members of the Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance a million thanks! God Bless!

give the disenfranchised a voice.
HI Merla, Good Morning, how are you. Charity begins at home. The Lord loves the cheerful giver. Your Charity is support and strength for great future of our poor and needy children of our Diocese, Nellore. I appreciate your great sacrifices and dedication in raising funds for the education of poor children around the world. In a special way for the poor children of our Diocese, Nellore. All the children, parents, Bishop and priests and religious are very greatful for you and for your donors and well wishers. What so ever you do to the least of my bretheren, you have done to me. I know personally your generous contribution and support for the education of poor children in our Diocese is very helpful and encouragement. Most of our children are poor and low caste (daliths). English Medium education is very cosly affair, with your generosity these children are able to study in English Medium Schools. They are growing in equality and human dignity. They are growing competitively with other forward caste and intellectual children. Thank you very much for coming forward to support these children.
When I heard from Merla ,the founder how this Alliance worked, I did. Not. Hesitate to
Help in a little way I can. I believe that this Alliance is really for helping the poor all over

HI I AM ANA KATRINA L. GEOGRAFIA.im studiying of immaculate conception parochial school.im frist year,
This missionary alliance does great works for the poor in different country. the founder Merla is very charitable and dependable
Hello, I am a recent friend to this organization, and heard about MQOAN from a parishoner actively serving as a volunteer. MQOAN is a wonderful organization taking no salary and absorbing all administrative costs. It means mailing out letters, faith items, books and other materials WORLDWIDE to those without internet! It is a pity that the recipients of much needed aide can not share their appreciation because the contest does not accept snail mail letters. Their voices will not be heard. Think about that, they can not even give back something as little as sharing their stories and voting for the organization that gives them dignity and hope. Thank you to GreatNonProfits for providing the opportunity to share my gratitude and support. Thank you. C.

This is my 11th year as Volunteer Treasurer of Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance (MQAN).
Merla, Founder and Director, pays particular attention to “Donor Intent” - 100% of donations received goes to the Missions to help our poor brothers and sisters rise above poverty. Merla, herself, pays for all shipping expenses, postage, office supplies, items sent to the missions such as school supplies, basic necessities, etc. and all overhead expenses which are kept at a minimum in an effort to help as many people as possible.
Miraculously, donors, though few, are from different states who have heard from others about MQAN and Merla - or by reading her newsletters, accomplishment reports, or from word of mouth. Every donor receives a “Statement of Donations” each year, in January for Income Tax purposes. Accomplishment Reports are sent out annually and Newsletters periodically.
She personally tracks all funds sent to the missions. She has missionaries, both religious and lay, in charge of projects, who provide her with an accounting of funds received, progress reports and pictures of the projects. She keeps a record of all donations received, making Xerox copy of checks and cash, even coins that she received. Every penny is accounted for. You cannot be more transparent than this.
Letters of request from the missions are read and voted on by the Volunteer Board at monthly meetings. Our hope is for increased number of donors and increased donations, since our funds are so limited. We have missionaries waiting for funding for their requests for assistance. Merla believes in Self-Sufficiency, teaching and educating people to help themselves and teach others once they learn. She sends where the need is the greatest and can do the most good. Merla is still the biggest Donor to her own Mission. Every penny is used with great prudence. She would not waste any resources but would rather help our poor brothers and sisters with education, food, medicines, housing, self-sufficiency, etc. She touches the heart of the receiver – and also the giver - for it is in giving that we receive.
Merla, born with cerebral palsy, has cared for the needy as a young girl in the Philippines, continued throughout her college and career. When she came to the U.S. in 1966, she started a one-person ministry, using her own salary, trying to help the poor in every way and as much as she can, also to spread the devotion to the Holy Rosary and the Bible and her mission spread to 40 countries. Then in April 1984, she traveled all over India to attend to the ordination of the seminarian she assisted and to visit all the missionaries she was assisting. On Dec. 8, 1984, Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance (MQAN) was formed as a non-profit organization, 501(c)(3), recognized by the Federal and State governments and by the Catholic Church. Along with other Certificates, on her office wall, hangs a Medal and a Certificate, Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice, signed by Pope John Paul II, as a recognition of her Mission work, for the Church and the Pope. Also hangs on the wall is a Blessing from Pope John Paul II for Merla, for MQAN and for the members. She has knowledge of God which she blends into day-to-day existence. This year 2013, MQAN was selected to receive the Caritas Award.
Mary Queen of All Nations, pray for us.

As a member of the Board of Advisos of "Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance", I can attest to the fact that the " Alliance " has greatly contributed to helping the poor and needy young men at the "Espíritu Santo Seminary" in Bolivia for a period of about twenty years. Furthermore, it has sacrificed to aid the Diocese of Coroico in its various endeavors. The officers of the "Missionary Alliance" have worked very hard and the donors have been heroic at times in making sacrifices in favor of their little brothers and sisters in foreign lands. I am happy to cast my vote, therefore, in acknowledgement and appreciation.

Miss Merla Ricafranca of Dover, NJ has been at it for many years now and remains virtually unknown to the general public. She has, however, been ever so quietly changing the world. Young people seek to become journalists to "change the world for the better". They are seemingly unaware that a journalist is supposed to be factually report the events of the day and that only. Changing the world is being accomplished by the little ones, those who actually work at working the change. Merla and the group she founded, Mary queen of all Nations, have been helping the poor, not by handouts, but by helping them get up. She helps them buy a pair of pigs, and they are soon tending a herd of swine and seeling them to the hungry. She helps them buy a pair of oxyen, and they are soon plowing field and planting crops. She helps young men in the seminary, and soon they are ordained priests and bringing Christ to the world. God only knows how many she has helped, and only a few know what she is about!
I am a Dominican Sister of the most Holy Rosary of the Philippines. We sisters are recipient of the many charities of the missionary alliance through Merla. We received donations like used clothing, goods and school supplies, to be distributed to the poor. Last December I, together with our young sisters in formation, distributed toys , rosaries and school supplies to the poor children we catechize during weekends. God bless Merla and companions. More power and blessings to the organization.
Dear Merla M. Ricafranca, I am Bro Manu Kuzhiveliparmabil who is doing his 3rd year of theological studies writing this review. I have here about 80 students of theology as my companions and I can say that none of us would have reached thus far with our theological studies, except with the help of this missionary alliance. Our parents were generous to allow us to become priests to work for the Youth at Risk who will be the future citizens of tomorrow.
I know that Merla and her alliance has no funds except the occasional and very limited help that some good friends give her to help us. We need more help so that after our studies, w e will work in various parts of India and also abroad, especially for the young who are at Risk, a very noble work indeed. I and my companions wish that many organisations may help this Alliance so that it can help many others in their seminary studies. Bro. Manu Kuzhiveliparambil S.D.B , 3rd Year student of theology.
Thanks to Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance for giving us capital for small business. I was given a capital for hog raising. It did flourish for sometime but my capital got lost when typhoon Frank devastated our crops. Hoping for another assistance.
We, the sixteen deacons here at Kristu Jyoti College, Bangalore,India,( The Salesian Major seminary where 295 priests, brothers and sisters are studying now in 2013), cannot remain silent about the very limited and yet generous help that Merla Ricafranca of the Mary Queen of All Nations Missionary Alliance gave us to help us to pay the costs of the tarining in the seminary. We want to thank her and also tell all agencies that help in the education of seminary students, that we will not have reached this stage in our lives except through the kindness of this Alliance . When we will be priests by December this year, we will go and work for the Youth at Risk who will be future citizens of this country with right Moral Attitudes. For the sixteen Deacons Rev. Deacon Paul Chalissery S.D.B.
SMALL IS BEAUTIFUL AS WELL AS FAR REACHING: WORTHY OF ALL STAR RATING
Well this is not a routine or a formal review. Rather it is flowing out from heart out of genuine gratitude and appreciation. This written on behalf of the real and concrete deserving beneficiaries who are very poor people and their children. The charitable mission of Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance is stupendous and real, at the same time. Certainly there are very big Charitable organisations, which we applaud. However, most important and useful are the small yet practical organisations such as this, which is founded and run by Miss. Merla Ricafranca and her group of friends. Our Diocese of Nellore is a clear witness to the far reaching and practical helps rendered by Merla Ricafranca and her group. Ten children from remote villages hailing from very poor families are provided quality education is English Medium Schools, which are normally accessible only to the rich. With a slogan "why not the poor also have best education?" we have started this new and radical project. Thanks to the support rendered by Merla Ricafranca and her group. Very poor people from a very remote village were able to construct a multi purpose hall in which they can meet together as a community to pray and offer Holy Mass. They also can tke shelter in it when the torrential rains threten to bring down their miserable thatched huts and melt down their walls made of clay. People are very grateful and the joy in their eyes could be seen each time I meet them. These two projects have raised the dignity of the people. It has brought about a great transformation in their lives. The amount of money and the people reached out through material means should not alone be the criterion. I believe that Merla Ricafranca and her team have chosen the most powerful means of helping the whole universe and humanity through the prayer Apostolate. This way I am sure that they have earned for themselves and for all of us NOT JUST A FIVE STAR BUT A ALL STAR RATING. Hats up to them.
Yours truly in Christ,
BISHOP MOSES D. PRAKASAM.

Dear Merla M. Ricafranca,
Fr.Matthew Uzhunnalil SDB whom you used to help in his terrible mission area Yemen, is with me in the seminary, Kristu Jyothi College. He worked 18 years in North East India and developed many centers for the uplift of the poor of the area. He built chapels, schools to educate the poor children and also opened small dispensaries to help poor people who had no resources to go to a private hospital where they need to pay heavily.
He built up the first seminary at Dibrugarh in the North East corner of India- that has given to the North East India one archbishop and two bishops. The priest trained here are working for the poor and uneducated tribal people and making them come up in the society.
The superiors felt the need of sending Fr.Matthew to a very difficult mission field Yemen. There he got back the church lands nationalized and rebuilt the churches destroyed by the Islamic fundamentalist elements. Fr. Matthew due to age and sickness, after 16 years of work, could not continue to work in Yemen. He was sent to this major seminary where we have students of theology by the Provincial superior. As at the time of Don Bosco we have no reserve fund for the education of the seminarians.
I can say that all the 1,500 priests who completed their priestly studies here during the past 47 years were always helped by generous and kind hearted people.
As I was struggling to keep up the seminary students, Fr. Matthew approached Merla M. Ricafranca who, despite her very limited resources came forward to help a few seminarians who otherwise may find it hard to proceed in their seminary studies. We can never thank her enough for the help that she gives us and we pray that generous people or charitable organizations will generously come to her aid so that the Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance can continue the good work.
We shall pray to God Almighty to bless all those who contribute to the Mary Queen of all Nations Missionary Alliance.
