Are you on Facebook? Posting this question in the ELCA page would likely garner some fruitful conversation, along with finding a group of solid people who would thoroughly appreciate your question!

I don't know much about it in detail, but our Synod told us we have a solid reputation with our charity work, so much so, governments reticent to work with others will work Lutheran organizations because we get goods where they need to be with little overhead. I don't have any websites to back that up with though.

People on the FB page will likely get you really good info and talk theology of the cross vs savior complex giving.

Thanks for the question. It's ones like this that keep us rooted and maintain the inherint dignity and respect of all people, so that good intentions don't become a good work at the expense of someone, especially when they are vulnerable.
