Trinity International University has over 170 international students from nearly 40 countries, plus many families that live on campus or in close proximity. These students and their families come to Trinity because of their dedication to the gospel of Jesus Christ, and are willing to sacrifice in order to be further equipped to minister. Trinity is thankful for the richness they bring to our community.

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Trinity has moved to remote instruction. It is uniquely difficult for the internationals because by federal law, they are not allowed to receive employment outside of their university campus. Most events and activities that international students work at, which fund their jobs, have been canceled due to the outbreak, leaving many out of work. To add to that, more than 30 families rely on weekly food donations brought to campus from food banks. With the current crisis, many of these donations are no longer available.

Trinity is seeking individuals and churches to partner with us in serving our students in need. We are seeking the donation of cash to cover food, rent, and basic expenses for the students with the greatest need, as well as re-employ a number of international students looking for work in temporary positions. If you prefer, we are accepting donations of groceries, and basic household items to be distributed to our international students and their families.
