Thrivent Financial for Lutherans said it would match $1 for every $2 donated by members of the Missouri Synod World Relief and Human Care, Lutheran World Relief, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America Disaster Response and the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod Committee on Relief.
On Feb. 8, donors helped meet that $3 million goal.
“We thank Thrivent for their generosity in making these matching funds available, and we thank our donors for responding so quickly,” said Hans Springer, associate executive director of fund development for Missouri Synod World Relief and Human Care. “Both Thrivent and our caring supporters are blessings to the suffering people in Haiti.”
