Tucked away in the heart of the Pacific, the island of Kosrae is home to 7,000 people and a culture defined by resilience. While our island is small, just 42 square miles, our potential is vast. Currently, many of our young adults seek education and opportunity abroad, often leading to a loss of vital skills and leadership within our own community.

Grateful Ministries is dedicated to changing that narrative. We are working to reverse the trend of migration by empowering young Kosraeans to invest their education and skills back into their home community. By improving local access to higher level education, healthcare, nutrition, and housing, we are building a sustainable future where our youth don't have to choose between success and home. By investing in our people, we ensure that Kosrae doesn’t just survive, but thrives for generations to come.
