Who We Are

Love Must Act is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization that fosters love by building partnerships for pro-poor education programs. Our roots are in the U.S.-based Episcopal Church, a Christian denomination with a presence in 17 countries around the world and an even greater global footprint through its membership in the 80-million-person worldwide Anglican Communion. The Episcopal Church has a strong record of supporting its international partners in many ways, including through its development agency, Episcopal Relief & Development.  The Episcopal Church also has a remarkable network of schools, both in the United States and abroad, with a reputation for excellence, which provides a readymade community of common interest having significant gifts and experience to offer.  Our founder and president, Bishop Stacy Sauls, learned the transformative and life-giving power of relationship with the poor in college. He has attempted to replicate that lesson throughout his ministry in the Church as a parish priest, diocesan bishop, and denominational leader.
