"My mind is young, it's the body that's old."
This was one farmer's response when asked if he had a vision for his life. His comment summarized what many of his neighbors felt. Though a better life may have passed them by, they still dream for their children and grandchildren. REACH, Inc. shares that same dream.
 REACH, Inc. stands for Resources Employment and Community Horizons. We believe that God is eternally biased in favor of the weak, the oppressed, and the helpless. REACH, as a Christian development organization, employs resources imaginatively to build a better community for its members, their families, and others in need.
Emergency and disaster relief, medical care, and capitalization for economic projects are just a few ways REACH as an organization and as individuals have actively expressed their faith.
A pig farm in the late 70s and early 80s served as a livelihood project and a training ground for character development among future leaders.
 In recent years, micro-finance projects have helped upgrade specific communities' well-being, promoted stewardship, and helped the needy maximize limited resources through savings groups.
Men and women living transformed lives through Christ are the ideal agents of change in their communities, social groups, and institutions. Therefore, REACH projects include values formation as a critical component of development.
Recently, REACH members established a sister organization, the Resources Development Cooperative, to more effectively implement development and transformational projects.
