Throughout our history, ELW_® has been actively engaged in oversees development through our partnership with Canadian Lutheran World Relief (CLWR). While many individual ELW groups also support a variety of worthwhile projects, our official commitment includes financial support, education and prayer support for projects approved by our national convention.

Currently there are two ways in which we partner with CLWR: Four Corners Alternative Trade Organization and the Human Rights and Health for Women Project in Chamanculo, Mozambique.
