The Angel Tear Ministries Fund was established for the purpose of assisting third-party 501(c)(3) organizations to better serve both domestic and foreign communities through Christ-centered programs that provide food, housing, education, and medical care to underserved and underprivileged children and families. Nearly 100 organizations were assisted during fiscal year 2020 including missions supported in over 30 countries and 15 churches.

In its nearly 140-year history, the organization has never discharged a resident for an in ability to pay. Concordia views benevolent care as a core tenant of its mission and would provide charity care even if the fund did not exist; but due to the support of the fund, Concordia can provide significantly more care to those in need compared to if the entire shortfall due to the benevolent care had to be offset with excesses from other operations.
