"No one should have to live in garbage. Children should not sort through toxic, dangerous materials with their bare hands. The Universal declaration on the Rights of the Child should not simply be signed, it must be implemented."

Together for Transformation is a Christian organization dedicated to transforming the most desperate situations of the world through strategic partnerships.

We network with churches and other organizations to help the global Christian movement to fulfill its calling to ignite transformation in situations of extreme poverty and oppression, such as garbage dump communities.

We have found that working with the local church is the most effective way to do this, not only because of the many connections and resources it provides, but also because the church is highly capacitated to meet the needs of the whole person, including freedom from addictions and the destructive behavior that contributes to generations of poverty. However, God also works through other segments of society and people and organizations outside of the church. We partner with every organization like-minded in vision to bring about the complete transformation of garbage dump communities.

Together for Transformation is a ministry of Washington Cathedral in Redmond, Washington.
