Who We Are
The Organization
Speiro is a 501c3 public charity, on a mission to sustainably and resiliently fund global Christian missions to the unreached. We believe that God’s word calls us to support the spread of the good news of Jesus Christ through global missions (Matt. 28:19-20) and to steward resources well while seeking to increase their impact (Matt. 25:16,27).
We recognize a major concern, that 3.2 billion people (~41% of the globe) are unreached by the gospel, yet only about 1% of missions dollars goes to the unreached. We prayerfully seek to help solve this problem by operating a fund, which has been developed in a way that is self-sustainable and resilient to fluctuating economic conditions. As this fund grows, by your support, more gospel workers in places with the least access to the gospel are able to receive support from our fund.
FAQs
-
Speiro is a supporter of reaching the unreached, but does not operate as a missions sending organization in the traditional sense. Speiro seeks to direct it’s donor-dollars to the pockets of gospel workers who need it in order to begin or continue serving in the least reached nations. By the time a donee would be receiving money from Speiro, the donee will already be administratively associated with a sending organizations, who supports their administrative burdens of reaching the lost. Speiro comes alongside the work that these sending organizations are doing with a targeted focus, deploying a rigorous selection process for gospel worker donees, and growing a long-term, sustainable, and resilient funding mechanism which is used to make an impact now and for generations.
-
Speiro, publicly launching this year (2025), has already begun disbursing funding to missionaries for service in the Maldives and Saudi Arabia (Nations #1 and #3 in our target prioritization). In the near term, Speiro will be continuing to work alongside missions sending organizations to identify and fund the small ministries in the least reached places.
