Eden Development Foundation is a Christian-based non-profit organization dedicated to fostering sustainable community development by addressing the needs of the frail and disadvantaged, promoting agricultural resilience, ensuring food security, and enhancing digital literacy. We believe in creating a more equitable society by empowering communities with the tools and skills they need to thrive in the modern world.
Our mission is to create opportunities for marginalized communities by improving health, advancing agricultural practices, ensuring food security, and promoting lifelong digital learning. We aim to uplift lives by empowering individuals with knowledge, resources, and opportunities that support their overall well-being and growth.
A world where all individuals, especially the frail and disadvantaged, have equal access to the resources and knowledge necessary for living healthy, sustainable, and fulfilling lives.
We provide direct assistance to vulnerable groups, including the elderly, persons with disabilities, and marginalized communities. Through community-based programs, we take special care of the orphans and child headed households. We provide mental wellness support, and social integration programs, ensuring that no one is left behind. We support Tebellong Hospital to reach those who may not easily access health care e.g. teenage pregnancy prevention and HIV counselling and testing.
We also aspire to support the churches in the Mission of God to social justice as well as to the call to faith in Jesus Christ, encouraging the local churches to provide care and practical help.
We promote conservation agricultural practices (farming God’s way) that increase food production, reduce poverty, and support local economies. Our programs focus on improving farming techniques, providing access to essential farming tools, seeds, and encouraging environmentally friendly methods that ensure food security for both current and future generations.
In an increasingly digital world, we provide access to computer programs and training for all schools in Tebellong plateau. Our digital literacy initiatives range from basic computer skills to advanced programming courses, empowering individuals with the tools they need to thrive in a digital economy.
We support community youth with mentorship and leadership programs as we strive to create a generation of valuable and responsible members of the society. We also support sports, currently soccer and athletics for males and females at Tebellong community. It is our belief that engaging in sports will teach our youth with important life skills like teamwork, leadership, discipline, time management and avoidance of risky behaviors.
