Nigeria Relief & Protection Fund

Light for the church under fire. Bread for the neighbor going without.

Nigeria is the deadliest country on earth to be a Christian, and one of the hardest places to simply get by. Comfort to the Nations Foundation funds emergency protection, trauma care, and household relief for the widows, orphans, and displaced families caught in both crises.

The short version

Why this fund exists

In Nigeria's Middle Belt and north, Christian farming communities are attacked, kidnapped, and driven off their land — more Christians are killed there for their faith than anywhere else on earth.¹ The husbands and fathers killed in these attacks leave behind widows with no income and children with no school fees, in a country where 63% of the population already lives below the poverty line.² Relief is reaching some of these families, through churches and small aid groups working with almost nothing. Comfort to the Nations Foundation exists to get more resources to those groups faster — for protection when an attack is imminent, and for food, shelter, and school support in the months after.

Two crises, one region

Why we work in both the church and the household

Attacks empty villages and destroy farmland and livelihoods; poverty leaves communities with no safety net when violence strikes. We fund both sides of that problem, through vetted local partners already doing the work on the ground.

Protect

Rapid response & security

Emergency alerts, safe transport, and physical security support for congregations and families under direct threat.

Restore

Trauma care & resettlement

Counseling, medical care, and housing support for survivors of attack, abduction, or displacement — including widows and orphans.

Provide

Household relief

Food, farming inputs, and small-business grants for families — Christian and Muslim alike — pushed below the poverty line.

You can move a dollar directly into someone's worst week.

Every gift is tracked to a specific program — emergency response, trauma care, or household relief — so you know exactly what your generosity made possible.
