Greetings! I'm David Tinney, the founder and president of Family Aid International, an international ministry to Ukraine and other former Soviet bloc nations. I want to welcome and thank you for expressing a desire to learn more about who we are and what we do. As you surf our pages we hope to show you what we see for the 21st Century - the Gospel of the Kingdom advancing in unprecedented measure in Ukraine and eastward toward Central Asia.

Family Aid International and our partners are positively impacting families in Ukraine. Through specific programs designed to bring positive influence and maximum results, our ministry is bringing hope and encouragement to the people of Ukraine.

Ukraine's greatest resource is her people. We believe by having a Kingdom influence on families, the society will be in turn be influenced in a positive way.

If your vision is for a year, plant wheat. If your vision is for 10 years, plant trees. If your vision is for a lifetime, plant people. Chinese Proverb
