I traveled to Kenya with SERV International and it is clear that God's hand is on the work they are doing. I was so moved by the experience that I wanted to support their projects in the U.S. and other countries as well, but the kids and families they help in Kenya still have my heart!
This organization is as real and honest as they can be. They are doing the work directly, receiving input from the people they serve to shape their programs, and use every dollar to the fullest.
Very good experience. I have personally met & became friends with the founder & one of the other leaders in this organization. I am extremely comfortable knowing my money is going directly to the cause.
SERV International is a wonderful nonprofit. I just went on a mission trip with them this past week to Kenya. We packed up 120,000 nutritious meals and hand-delivered them to multiple villages where food is extremely sparse. They also do food donations within the local community of Canton, GA. It is very well done, and I look forward to being a partner with them even more!
SERV is making a tremendous impact globally as well as locally in Cherokee county. Since beginning of pandemic they have been serving food boxes for anyone in need and have maintained this activity ever since. They are a wonderful faith based organization making a difference here at home
Absolutely love working with Serv International! They are always ready and willing to fill a need in the community
I have been involved with Serv international since its conception in 2020. I’ve been doing outreach with Steve, the founder since 1999. I have a history with Serv and Have had many trips to Lodwar Kenya so can truthfully say that consistency of love and support for Our orphans and the surrounding villages of Turkana is phenomenal. When you do foreign ministry your heart is so full of serving that you just can’t wait until the next trip to serve , So you spend those energies and passion serving Locally, and Serv provides that opportunity also.Serving internationally he can be a scary thought for some. Serv International has a wonderful staff not only in Lodwar, But in Nairobi where it all begins. You will never feel unsafe or anxious. If you ever get The foreign ministry bug, I recommend you make that first trip with Serv international
I have been involved with Serv for 8 years first as a customer of their store and then as a board member for the past few years. I have seen firsthand the impact Serv has on people locally and abroad. Providing food as a platform to reach those who are in need for not just physical food but spiritual food. I love Serv's mission and everyone involved with it's leadership. God has given Steve a mission with a platform of Food to impact the lives of millions of people. Not only changing lives he is changing family legacies and providing generational change to multiple Nations!
As a donor, I am amazed by the personal contact and true love for people shown by SERV. I have seen by video the beautiful children we are graced to sponsor and the impact on their lives. SERV loves and supports not only internationally but right here at home as well.
I cannot begin to tell you how selfless this organization and their founders are. They have made strides and continue to change the lives of many malnourished and impoverished people around the world. I went to high school with Steve Kasha and Jim Vinyard and what they have accomplished is truly amazing. I encourage anyone looking for a sincere place to contribute for the well being of children, look no further. You’re donation goes so far with SERV in helping the needy.
My husband and I have seen the "behind the scenes" of lots of non-profits since we used to work in Christian radio. I can say that SERV International's promises and words are backed up with action. They are an organization with such integrity, heart and compassion. We've never been more excited to give to an organization.
I've traveled twice to Kenya with SERV to the House of Hope and they were the most transformative trips ever.

SERV International is an organization that has my heart. My husband and I were looking for an organization to get involved with over 6 years ago. That's when we found out about SERV. We got to know the leadership, the vision, the financial integrity, and the hearts of everyone involved. The deeper we got, the more we felt grateful that there was an organization like this. We began financially supporting them, then we became ambassadors, then we starting sponsoring children at the House of Hope orphanage, and then I took 2 trips to Kenya with SERV. Through SERV's dedication to changing other people's lives, they've changed ours.
I have been a sponsor at SERV International since 2019. SERV does an incredible job at keeping donors informed and in contact with the children at House of Hope. No one is just a number with this organization. Everyone is treated with kindness and respect. The staff takes time to answer questions. I have felt like part of the family since day one. Because of the love and compassion they consistently exude, my daughter has also joined the SERV team as an Ambassador. Their work inspires people of all ages! Every non-profit should operate like SERV International. As a 501(c)(3) founder myself, I know the effort and dedication that goes into this work. SERV International is outstanding and far exceeds expectations!
I'm so honored to contribute to the work SERV is doing as it is clearly God's work. To know where every bit of my hard-earned donation goes brings me peace. To receive updates from my sponsored kiddo makes my heart and face smile!
SERV is a fantastic organization. I first met Steve Kasha through a mutual friend at my local church in Alpharetta, Georgia. Months later I was on my way to Lodwar, Kenya, my second trip to Kenya in 2 years. We distributed food, worshipped with the local churches, and were touched by the needs and kindness of the people there. I eventually ended up sponsoring two little girls and have watched them grow up over the years, through their letters and drawings and photographs, and I've watched them grow in their relationship with Christ. SERV is the real deal. They've given me a way to help those two little girls , to change their lives forever. I can't imagine where those girls would be today without Steve Kasha and SERV. SERV is all about meeting the needs of people, both locally in Canton, Georgia, and in Kenya, and several other International location, serving Christ and sharing the good news of the Gospel. I am proud to be a supporter.
I’ve traveled to Kenya twice with SERV and participated in local food drives as well. It’s a generous, dedicated organization that I’m proud to support
I love this organization. I'm not only a volunteer but also a donor. They not only support globally but locally as well. What they have done for the community during this pandemic has been outstanding. I will continue to support them in whatever ways they need for me to serve with them. I have been able to see what they do first hand when I went on a mission trip to Kenya in 2019, it was a life changing experience. SERV is an amazing organization!
I am a volunteer and a donor for SERV. This is a very community ministry where you feel like part of the family every time you are there. I am glad to be able to help them, physically and financially, as they use food as a platform to share Jesus' love in our community and around the world. Through them I have also been able to sponsor a child in Kenya, to provide her with food, shelter, and an education through SERV's House of Hope orphanage. They go above and beyond in keeping me connected with the child I sponsor by letter writing and facebook live events.
SERV changed my life 7 years ago when I took my first mission trip to Kenya. How they share the word of Christ, care for the world through food and water, and nurture the lives of 67 children through House of Hope created a passion in me to serve the needs of our world in Kenya and Cambodia with SERV. In addition, all the local work here in GA during this pandemic through food distribution.
I've been a volunteer and donor for two years and I can honestly say my life has been changed because of it. I have had the privilege of traveling to Kenya twice, I sponsor a beautiful little girl that I was lucky enough to help rescue, and I've gotten the chance to serve locally at their GA headquarters. I also support their food outreach through my business and I'm thankful that I don't have to question where the money is actually going. The staff is truly dedicated to their global efforts and heart for people in need and I will continue to support and work closely with SERV!
Fantastic charity that is straight from the soul. Steve Kasha has an amazing story that leads through his passion for helping. This Charity is trying to stand on it's own two legs with a goal to make different parts of the world less deprived by starting with Food First. Highly recommend researching www.servone.org to gather more information and to see Steve's personal story. After listening to his core beliefs and his passion for serving you will be impressed and want to know how you can help. The website is very easy to navigate and you can donate at any time. Reach out to the corporate office 770-516-1108 and ask for Steve directly if you want to know more! How many other Charities can you say that you can speak to the founder? You won't be disappointed and he enjoys coffee!
SERV International is 100% Pass Through. I have seen first hand the compassion they have for others in need of food and shelter fuel their drive to SERV others and through this share their Love of Jesus Christ. "Service above Self"
SERV’s heart for serving other’s is unmatched. Everything they do is driven by a desire to draw people closer to Christ both locally and globally! It’s an honor to be a part of their work.
SERV International is an amazing organization that has changed the lives of so many people. My daughter first discovered SERV and was blown away by their programs they are doing around the world! They provide food and water to those in need and have two orphanages. What an amazing organization. They have been operating for 17 years. They have proven repeatedly their heart to SERV. I cannot wait to go on a mission trip with them to Kenya. When I talk to those who have gone they say they now see life in a whole new way.
SERV is a great nonprofit. Their feeding and water projects are making a huge impact globally. I have had the pleasure of seeing all of this first hand in Kenya. The House of Hope Orphanage and kids there are not only precious but truly life changing.
SERV is an incribible organization that has changed so many lives, including my own. To put into words all the amazing ways God has used them to share His word, is not possible. I have experienced first hand the compassion, authenticity, and drive to seek after Christ that this organization embodies. SERV is truely one of a kind organization.
Serv International does so much for so many people. From helping people in the United States experience life in a whole new way to providing food to those suffering from the east Africa drought. Their trips they offer are life changing and has become a cornerstone in my life. Getting involved with Serv changed my life for the better. This is one of the best nonprofits I have ever been apart of.
I can't say enough good things about this organization. My daughter has been on two mission trips with them and it changed her life. They make such a difference in the lives in our communities, as well as the lives of those in other countries. Families have clean water, food and clothing due to their commitment to change lives! The people that make up Serv, whether it be employees or volunteers, they have a passion for SERVing and they are making a difference every day. Thank you SERV International!!!
Truth and transparency ... two words that matter most in today's economy of giving money for any cause. For me, it was about seeing it with my own two eyes; I wanted to know where my money was going and how it was being spent. So I went to Kenya with SERV International in September of 2017 and found out for myself just how extraordinary this small, but incredibly efficient non-profit really is. I am impressed to the core with authenticity of the mission and its leadership. But more importantly, I experienced up close and personal how SERV International is not just saving lives one meal at a time, but it's changing the world one life at a time. I am proud to be a supporter in good faith for all good faith reasons.

This organization has changed the life of my whole family! It started with my daughter going on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic with them, which led to me making 3 trips to Kenya, Africa with this organization. We now have the privilege to sponsor 3 orphans through SERV. To see the work they are doing up close and in person will impact you in a big way. They are addressing countless needs of people, from food to water, to an orphanage and education, all with the platform of sharing Jesus. But, the best part is that it is all being done in order to help them become self sustaining. I am so excited to have found an organization that is 100% pass thru that I can get behind. With SERV, you not only get to financially support, but you are encouraged to be hands on as well.
I've done a couple of mission trips with SERV. Both were outstanding experiences, and this organization surpassed all of my expectations. The staff is wonderful to work with and very organized. The men leading the trip were wonderful to serve with, the team I served with was fabulous, and I'm sure that I'll work with SERV again. I have every confidence that overhead is kept to a minimum, and that the maximum amount of funds donated possible goes to the people who are being served. Top-notch organization that I am honored to be associated with. Highly recommended if you want a life-changing experience!
This isn't your ordinary non-profit. From the minute you walk through the front door, you know something is different. People say a picture says a thousand words, but I think the pictures on the walls at SERV tell a thousand stories - stories of lives being saved and changed forever through their ministry.
SERV helps to feed people all over the world for only 8 cents per meal. They go into a village in need, feed people both spiritually and physically, and keep going back to help fulfill their basic needs, taking them from survival mode to sustainable living.
I've had the privilege to witness so many changed lives due to the heart of this organization. They really care about everyone they serve - from the most remote villages in the northwest desert of Kenya to their local outreach serving people in need in their own community. They just love others.
People are naturally drawn to the work they do, as they are revolutionizing the way people see and experience life through their organization. I am beyond thankful to those I have helped through SERV, and consider myself blessed to be a blessing.
When I first heard about SERV last year, I was blown away by all the work they are doing around the world! Reading through the stories on their website warmed my heart and brought tears to my eyes. I got connected with SERV and ended up going with them on a local mission. I got to help minster to the community right here in Canton, and it was such a joy and blessing to be a part of! I got to meet so many sweet and caring people, and got the opportunity to have meaningful conversations with them as well. SERV International is such an amazing organization and their ministry is truly life-changing for all who are involved.
I went to Kenya in June with SERV and was blown away by the way they do ministry in another country. It was amazing to see the Kenyans being empowered to serve their people and love Christ. They feed people in Kenya but also in other parts of Africa, Dominican Republic, Cambodia, and beyond. They are not only feeding people but also giving them eternal freedom by sharing what Jesus did with them! I fully believe in this ministry and what they are doing to further the Kingdom!
SERV International is an incredible organization that has changed the lives of so many people. I recently went on a trip with them to Kenya and watched how they used food to create change in each village we visited. I saw a group of widows who had developed programs to grow and sell food for income. I saw schools where students were flourishing because they had enough food to be strong and learn. I saw villages of starving people dancing to receive food. I saw wells, orphanages, and greenhouses, and so many lives changed because of the work they are doing. I also saw each person on the trip grow and change because of what they experienced. It is an all around great organization!
SERV International was started and is managed by a long-time acquaintance of mine. He is genuine about his faith in Christ and obedient to the charge of caring for the poor and spreading the Gospel. The money donated to SERV is carefully managed and is allotted to the fullest extent to the people that SERV cares for. After donating, I received a handwritten thank you note. Correspondence with the staff has always been sincere and gracious. In addition, SERV is consistent with informing the public about the organization to insure that donations continue solely to help the people in poverty. I highly recommend SERV as an avenue to help others in need.
