OUR story

Share Syndicate began with a heart to serve vulnerable people through faith, compassion and meaningful partnership.

That calling led to THE REFUGE located in Borovtsi, Bulgaria — a place with a long history of care through the work of Bulgarian Child, Inc. and a renewed future through partnership with Michael Gott International.

At its heart, the story of Share Syndicate is about people coming together to serve with purpose, compassion and faith.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to bring faith to life through practical care, compassionate refuge and hope-filled support.

Through THE REFUGE, Share Syndicate helps to provide a place where vulnerable individuals and families can be seen, supported and cared for with dignity. We offer shelter, meals, spiritual counseling, life-skills support and community outreach for those who need help.

We believe in compassionate action — in showing up, serving faithfully and creating the space for healing and hope.

THE HEART BEHIND THE MISSION

Every mission has a story and every story has someone willing to say yes. Share Syndicate is led with faith, compassion and a deep commitment to serving vulnerable communities.
