Because You Can Make a Difference
Wouldn't it be great if we could absolutely, positively know that every $100 or $500 we donate would bring results? We can. Not because we think so or hope so, but because God says so.
"So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." —Isaiah 55:11

That's what makes supporting The Gideons International so exciting! God guarantees that His Word will be effective. When you provide Bibles or New Testaments through The Gideons, you can have confidence that your financial support will change lives, and the need for God's Word is greater than ever:
- 53% of the world's population lives on less than $2 (U.S. dollars) per day. For them, purchasing a copy of the Scriptures is utterly impossible.
- There are 1.2 billion young people between the ages of 10 and 19 around the world, and most of them will never own a New Testament unless one is given to them.
- There are more than nine million people in prisons around the world. A gift of Scripture may be the only way many of these prisoners will learn that God loves them and that they can be forgiven.
In the United States:
- In 2005, 7 million people were behind bars, on probation or on parole.
- There are 5,756 registered hospitals with 946,997 staffed beds.
- There are more than 4,400,000 hotel rooms.
People need the hope that only God's Word can provide. Will you help us give it to them?
