“Can a century-old Christian disability mission scale inclusive development programmes globally while managing the financial complexity of multi-currency, multi-entity donor-funded operations across the world's poorest countries?”
Founded in 1908 in Germany as a faith-based mission focused on blindness prevention and treatment, CBM has evolved into a broad international development organisation addressing disability across poverty contexts. Over more than 100 years it expanded from purely medical eye care into inclusive education, humanitarian response, and community-based inclusive development (CBID). Its financial infrastructure reflects a multi-entity international NGO structure: a German charitable association as the parent, with national member organisations including a UK charity and a US 501(c)(3) entity, raising donations globally and disbursing programme funds to partner organisations in low- and middle-income countries. Cross-border FX management (via Ebury) is a natural operational necessity given this structure.
Christian Blind Mission (CBM) uses Ebury for FX and cross-border payouts.
Christian Blind Mission (CBM) is founded in 1908 and headquartered in Bensheim, Germany.
