Description

The Action for Peace through Prayer and Aid (APPA) was founded in 1996 by Reverend Sang-Jin Choi of Fourth Street Fellowship. A church aalso commonly called House of Peace. Reverend Choi, a Korean Mennonite Pastor, saw the issues of poverty and racism as issues that needed God's social justice. APPA works on fostering racial harmony and promoting the end of homelessness through several projects locally in Washington, DC, Baltimore, and Georgia.
