United Methodists Committee on Relief (UMCOR): UMCOR is the agency through which United Methodists may respond to needs at home and throughout the world. UMCOR regularly posts Advance Specials for immediate needs such as hurricane relief or emergency relief to refugees, and for long-term needs such as world hunger. Advance Specials allow directed giving to specific projects or needs. Since the United Methodist Church pays the overhead expenses, 100 percent of the donated funds reach their target. UMCOR also funds church and community workers who are assigned to communities to manage and provide aid to those in need. The workers also respond to domestic emergencies.
