Welcome to C.O.R.E Alliance - We are disaster relief

What is CORE?

CORE (Christians Organized for Relief Efforts) is an open group of churches banding together with the mission of serving the community as the hands and feet of Christ. We work with our partners to provide relief efforts to those in need. We maintain a current list of partners on CORE-Alliance's blog.

What is our mission?

To strategically partner with other organizations in order to combine resources in a way that enables us to provide the maximum relief to the most people and places in the world.

What is our vision?

To partner with over 1000 organizations and provide relief to people in over 100 countries around the world.

How do we define relief?

Anything that relives poverty, suffering, or hardship. Relief can come in the form of education, economic empowerment, food, material donations, aid, or disaster assistance.

How did we begin?

CORE was established in 2005 by two churches from Houston, Texas to assist in meeting the needs of people hit by Hurricane Katrina in the Gulf Coast area. Ultimately, CORE housed nearly 9000 volunteers coming from all over the US and several countries as they rallied to provide relief to Mississippi citizens.
