Project Jonah
Building a better world with your help
Through Project Jonah, we support small businesses so Christian families can remain in their homelands, build a future and thrive.
About Project Jonah
The story behind Project Jonah
As the prophet Jonah emerged from the belly of the whale after three days, traditionally seen as an image of the Resurrection, our support of small businesses — to help Christians stay in their homelands, not migrate, and build a future — is called Project Jonah. Bringing hope where there has been despair, with a mini micro-financed donation, we have helped numerous businesses in five countries so far, enabling families to create a future, and not just survive, but thrive. Nasarean is one of the very few charities doing this essential work — investing in the future for Christians and keeping the cradle of Christianity alive.
