As of now, there are approximately 300,000 members of The Gideons International, an organization known for distributing Bibles worldwide. However, the total number of Gideons, including those not in the organization or involved in similar activities, is difficult to determine. The organization operates in over 200 countries, distributing millions of Bibles annually.
Gideons are motivated by a strong commitment to spreading the Christian faith and sharing the message of the Bible. Their primary goal is to reach individuals with the Gospel by distributing free copies of the Scriptures, particularly the New Testament, in various settings such as hotels, hospitals, and schools. Driven by a sense of service and the belief in the transformative power of God's Word, they aim to make a positive impact on people's lives through their outreach efforts.
It was probably because the Canadians changed their bylaws to admit non-professionals or non-businessmen into membership. I, as a Gideon member, received an email from the International saying they were accepting the Canadian's withdrawal, but failed to be explicit as to why. Last Sept. the Canadians narrowly failed to change the rules, but must have done so recently. Can not find anything on Google to confirm this. If anyone knows otherwise please correct me. Rendall Gray March 31 newsletter from Canada Gideons indicates the government of Canada requires compliance with financial reporting on funds leaving the country such that Gideons International was not able or willing to comply with.

There is an international organization that puts copies of the Bible in each hotel room, all over the world. The organization is called "The Gideons". It is the regular Holy Bible, but the cover will say, usually, "placed by The Gideons".
