This foundation was established to assist these servants financially, in order to meet their basic financial and medical needs.
In many cases for retiring missionaries, retirement savings opportunities are very limited. Some have no retirement at all. For older missionaries especially, their supporting mission organizations did not provide a retirement or pension, so they must rely on continued support of faithful donors.
Further, these missionaries in their retirement years often find their individual financial support decreases substantially upon retirement as they are no longer considered a part of “active ministry.”
FFRM is a volunteer organization. All administrative costs are covered by the board of directors, with 100% of donations going directly towards assisting aging and retired missionaries.
