Global Vessels has worked tirelessly in different parts of the world with the same goal–to bless and be blessed. Whether supporting communities by building a library and churches in Ghana, erecting an extension to a clinic, or building homes for needy villagers and an orphanage in Tanzania, as well as feeding and ministering to Katrina victims in the U.S. We seek to help remedy suffering in this world. Our partnership with others is what has enabled us to help bring relief and hope to those we serve.

Our Leadership
Frazier and Virginia Mathis
Frazier and Virginia Mathis are the founders and directors of Global Vessels, Inc. Global Vessels, Inc. is a 501c3 that has been in existence since 1998. The Mathis’s along with their dedicated board, embraced the idea of starting an orphanage after leading a volunteer mission trip to Tanzania in 2005. During this trip to build a clinic they came face to face with the condition of some of the children in the area. On their trip home, the mission team asked that something be done do help these vulnerable children to thrive.
Safe havens for support
Children in poverty are more likely
to be exposed to the stress of violence, gangs and drugs. This can negatively affect brain development and long-term well-being. Your support during this vulnerable time helps children and youth set their own goals to build a life free from poverty.
Good that grows
When you sponsor a child, you create a
powerful multiplier effect. You help them see beyond the daily struggles of life in poverty. Your support releases them from a cycle of short-term decisions and helps them gain the ability to begin contributing to their own families and communities.
