Samaritan’s Purse is a Christian international relief organization providing spiritual and physical aid to hurting people around the world. Since 1970, Samaritan’s Purse has helped meet the needs of people who are victims of war, poverty, natural disasters, disease, and famine with the purpose of sharing God’s love through His Son, Jesus Christ.

Samaritan’s Purse believes in being the first on the ground in order to serve and help those who have suffered through a catastrophic event by providing water, food, shelter and medical care while sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ. Samaritan’s Purse is seeking programs personnel to serve on our Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART). The Samaritan’s Purse DART stand ready to respond at a moment’s notice whenever and wherever disaster strikes. The DART program is composed of readily available professionals trained to respond within a complex international environment. DART members must have a flexible schedule since deployments occur with little or no warning and have the drive and passion to work in the midst of devastation and tragedy. The locations and living conditions can be challenging and the workdays long and hard. We are searching for flexible people who can overcome daunting logistical challenges to bring help and hope to those who need it most.

DART Programs Personnel are technical experts who deploy to crisis situations in some of the toughest locations around the world to serve those in desperate need. These responders assist in providing essential services including clean water, food, shelter, and medical care, all in the name of Jesus! DART Programs Personnel, in cooperation with the Team Leader, are responsible for planning, designing and implementing all disaster response activities. DART Programs Personnel are leaders in their career fields who are willing and able to step aside from their normal career for a minimum of 3 weeks at a time to answer the call to respond.
