About the organisation
Living on less than US$0.50 per day means a daily battle for survival. The ultrapoor live in adequate, crowded shelters. They suffer from chronic hunger and malnutrition. They lack access to clean water and proper sanitation making them highly prone to many types of diseases. They are particularly vulnerable to recurring natural disasters. And they lack access to networks of support that could help them. Living in ultrapoverty means living without hope for better future. ICM's initiatives are specifically designed to meet the needs of ultrapoor households.
Mission
International Care Ministries (ICM) has been serving the ultrapoor in the Philippines since 1992. In partnership with community leaders from thousands of slum communities, ICM delivers programs that transform the lives of more than 100,000 destitute people each year.

- Seeds, savings groups, and new hope
Each family today committed to saving P10 (US$0.20) per family per week every week into the future, for the group to use as capital. They are also encouraged to add “personal” savings on top of the group saving. Personal savings are a lifeline for poor families, and can be used for medical emergencies and household…
- Five Years of Transformation in Uganda
Five years ago, ICM stepped into Uganda with a simple but bold belief: that the local church could be the most powerful force for change in the world’s poorest communities. On August 28, 2025, that belief was celebrated — not in a boardroom, but in Kiboga, surrounded by 500 people whose lives are living proof…
