Calvary Torch Missions Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in the USA. It began as the small dream of three friends with the goal of giving back to their community and the world at large, moved to be in obedience to the Great Commission as written in Matthew 28:18-20 NIV. We are a faith-based humanitarian organization founded in February 2004, dedicated to meeting the needs of others through medical care, humanitarian outreach, health education, while sharing the love of Christ across Africa.
Since our founding in 2004, Calvary Torch Missions Inc. has served communities across African nations: Nigeria, Ghana, Benin, Zambia, Uganda, and Sierra Leone. We conduct 2 medical mission trips per year, focusing on primary healthcare, health screening, community education, and healthcare provider training. Wherever we go, we donate medical supplies to support local healthcare facilities.
Our medical missions include primary healthcare services, health screenings (blood pressure, blood sugar, vision, dental), patient education, preventive care workshops, nursing conferences, girls conferences, and training programs for local healthcare providers. We also distribute essential medications and medical supplies to underserved communities.
