Adopt-a-Minister International is a non-profit organization that pays the salaries of unemployed ministerial graduates in the Philippines through donations and sponsorships of wonderful people from all over the world. AaM International works with the conference officers of the Philippines, who place the ministers to work.
AaM International is probably the only, or one of the few fully (100% Volunteer) non-profit organizations in America.

AaM International uses NO monies from the sponsors' donations for management and neither does the local Philippine conferences where the monies go before being given to the adopted ministers. Not even postage or phone calls are deducted from sponsors' donations.
Administrative cost for operating AaM, including travel expenses are paid by the AaM staff themselves.
There are over 500 unemployed Theology graduates in the Philippines.
They're unemployed due to lack of funds. Many had been waiting for employment in our conferences for as long as 8 years. Many achieved their Theology degrees after 7 to 9 years as working students. Many work as volunteers for our churches with no stipend. Some receive stipend of around $20 to $40 a month.
A minister under the AaM in the Philippines receives $135/month and $240/month in other countries. It's not enough money because transportation expenses alone costs $20 a month.
Since we all cannot preach, how about helping someone who can.
