Our Story: The InterAmerican Restoration Corporation
The Inter-American Restoration Corporation came into existence in 2002 to facilitate ministry. The organization’s greatest motivating factor was to encourage and empower ministry by improving people’s medical and living conditions. Members of the IRC board were already heavily involved in short-term missions through TORCH Missions. Through the two-week trips, we realized that more help was needed on a full-time basis and projects were born to aid ongoing work in Honduras, Haiti, Guyana, Brazil, Nicaragua, and Guatemala. IRC also provides disaster relief in the southeastern United States and has initiated projects on the African continent as well, in both Sierra Leona and Monrovia.
Our Purpose
Our purpose is to provide these projects with guidance, finances, and assist in setting up legal and political guidance through our resources. Since the conception of IRC, land has been purchased, a women’s training program instituted, a children’s home begun, rehabilitation of gang members through tattoo removal, and a free medical clinic has been put into operation which provides medical care and pharmaceuticals to the clients it serves.
IRC board members also continue to lead TORCH trips throughout the year to build homes, schools and churches; to feed the hungry; assist in children’s programs; and general assistance to the poor through deliverance of needed supplies by sending containers of food, clothing and medical supplies throughout the year. We are currently assisting many of the poor hospitals and communities in the country of Honduras with badly needed supplies and ambulances. IRC’s vision for the future is to continue to assist people who are willing to provide relief for people who are in need and to empower people to become involved in ministry.
