Additional Information

Mission Statement  
The Encouragers  Society is dedicated in the preservation of American Christian Music  across the global media base of television, radio  and live concerts,  partnering with other non profit organizations and local communities to  help feed the hungry, empower children and families, and being a  Christian witness to all. The Encouragers Society believes in providing  support and encouragement through God’s Holy Scripture and delivering  the message of hope and salvation to people in need, in crisis, and to  lead a generation into Christian service in Jesus’ name. 

History & Purpose
The  Encouragers Society was founded in 1963 in Savannah, Georgia by Inez  “Mom” Kramer.  Chartered as a non-profit 501c3 organization in 1976, the  organization partners with reputable and honorable local charities to  assist, educate, and bring awareness and support for local American  community needs.  The Encouragers Society is also involved in the  preservation and distribution of the inspiring and encouraging message  of American Christian music and Bible scripture to millions of homes  through television and radio across the United States and in over 200  countries across the globe.  

With over 50 years of service, the organization continues to be active in their local community in Savannah, Georgia, as well as across the United States, reaching over 200 million potential homes across the world through television alone.  In 2008, the Encouragers Society began the creation of a weekly non-profit television program called Great American Gospel, which debuted 2008 and garnered the National Religious Broadcasters Television Showcase Award as “New Christian Television Program” for 2010.  Today, Great American Gospel celebrates its seventh year in existence and is seen in all of America and across the world.

The  Encouragers Society continues to produce, promote and assist with  regional and national events, media based events, television programs,  filming production, concerts, and fundraisers that create employment and  jobs for individuals, businesses and other charitable entities.  They  have worked to promote fund-raising efforts through their association  and fund-raising efforts with the Shriners, America's Second Harvest,  American Legion, Lighthouse Children's Home and D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse  Resistance Education in Public and Private Schools).  They continue to  partner with America's Second Harvest to help end hunger for children  and families in need.  Charitable Foundations, Grantors, Businesses,  Individual Contributors may rely on this determination to donate and  assist the Encouragers Society for this cause.

In  2005, the Encouragers Society took a step of faith by creating the  Great American Gospel television program, which has grown to over 500  television networks & affiliates, reaching every city and state in America, as well  as seven foreign countries. Today, our programs listed above have been  airing since 2005, 18 years running.  Their distribution to network television is totally  funded  by charitable viewers and donors to the Encouragers Society.

"The Greatest Encourager"

The Encouragers Society Founder

Lois Inez " Mom" Kramer 1928-2012

Known by everyone as Mom, she embodied the most perfect example of what a  Christian truly meant and represented.  She had a desire to encourage  and inspire others through her kindness, her giving, her ministry in  reaching others with the Gospel, and especially her love for family.   

She  was born in 1928 in Halifax, Virginia and married at the age of 16 in  1945 to U.S. Army World War II Veteran, T.L. Kramer.  Becoming a  full-time mother and housewife, she would raise five loving children.   In 1963, having a desire to reach out to communities with her ministry,  she begin a non-profit ministry called the Encourager Society.  She was  the matriarch and an active part of this ministry for 50 years until her  passing in 2012.  She ministered to hundreds of thousands as she  traveled all across America sharing her testimony, singing the Gospel,  and helping churches, charities and organizations raise awareness for  their cause.  She and the Encouragers Society were the creative force in  the formation of the Great American Gospel television program.  After  seven years, viewers all across America and in 200 countries can hear  the message in song and in scripture through Rev. Michael Guido, “The  Seed From the Sower” of the Guido Evangelistic Association.  

Mom  Kramer was truly a saint of God and vigilant prayer warrior.  Her  prayer was for God to take her home while she was performing. On  Tuesday, December 18, 2012, while performing and helping to raise food  items for needy families in Coastal Georgia, God took her home before  her very last song. The Encouragers Society continues the same tradition  today in providing assistance and awareness of charitable organizations  designed to help families and children in need and is now headed by her  only son, Danny Kramer, of Savannah, Georgia.  

"Mom” Kramer, founder of the Encouragers, Called Home
November 17, 1928 - December 19, 2012

On  Tuesday, December 18, 2012, the Encouragers performed to a great crowd  at a Christmas Fundraising Concert in the beautiful, historic Ardsley  Park Baptist Church in Savannah, Georgia.  There were hundreds in  attendance on this beautiful evening to help the Encouragers Society  raise food and donations for America's Second Harvest to be distributed  to needy families and children.

On this night, our most beloved  Mother and Encourager, Mom Kramer, left the stage with a severe headache  before performing her final song.  She was escorted to a waiting  ambulance by her family and rushed immediately to the hospital.  On  Wednesday, December 19, 2012, with all her family present and around her  bedside, diagnosed with over three brain aneurisms, Mom left for her  eternal home to be with Jesus.   We will all miss her so much, but we  rejoice knowing that she is in her heavenly mansion.   Her one desire  and prayer was to leave this world while she was ministering the Gospel  in song and to be with family and friends when she passed. On Tuesday  evening, Mom standing before hundreds of friends and supporters, and on  the very next day, surrounded by all of her loving family, God called  her home.  He truly answered her prayer.
