About Us
Dear Friends –
“I AM” World Mission Outreach, Incorporated is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization formed in 2007 by Roy Wanta. Children, as young as 3 or 4 years old, wander the streets with no one to care for them. Babies are left along side of the road to die. Young girls forced into prostitution in order to survive or provide for other members of their family. People bathe in polluted sewer systems. There are so many more examples showing how people are in desperate need of love and help.
After seeing firsthand the dire need for help across the world and the desire to show God’s love in those areas, Roy decided to try to do something, anything to make a difference in the lives of widows, orphans, girls forced into prostitution and other individuals in need and to show them the love and hope in Jesus Christ.

Some of the ways we are reaching out is:
- To help provide for and bring hope to children at the “I Am” Educational Center in Ghana. Currently, we are trying to give an education to those that are less privileged and can not afford an education.
- Help widows and young girls by training them in a vocation so they no longer rely on handouts or resort to prostitution to provide for their children.
- Digging of wells. The people of Africa face a daily struggle to obtain clean drinking water. Some women walk hours a day just to obtain dirty water that is contaminated with disease and dirt. The typical family income of the villagers is so desperately minimal that they have neither the ability to correct the situation themselves nor to move to another area. We would like to help this situation by continuing to dig wells and provide clean water for some targeted communities in Africa.
- Land: Through private-donations, land has been purchased to build an educational training center. We are exploring the opportunity for financial assistance in this building project.
To ensure people in need are helped to the fullest extent, none of the donations are used for personal gain by those working for “I AM”. Time, travel, and similar expenses are covered by those doing the work. Unlike many other organizations, this means 100% of the donated funds are used as intended by the donors – to help those in need.
We hope you will consider supporting the work of “I AM” World Mission Outreach with your prayers and donations. Donate Now
Yours in Christ,

Matthew 25:35-40
“For I was hungry and you gave Me food, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you brought Me together with yourselves and welcomed and entertained and lodged Me, I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you visited Me with help and ministering care, I was in prison and you came to see Me. The just and uprights will answer Him, Lord, when did we see You hungry and gave You food, or thirsty and gave You something to drink? And when did we see You sick or in prison and came to visit You? And the King will reply to them, Truly I tell you, in so far as you did it for one of the least of these My brethen, you did it for Me.”
