AFRICA
Thanks to our supporters, kids in Africa have been receiving life-saving care for nearly 30 years.
The challenge in Africa is very big. Over 32 million kids are orphans. More than 18 million people are refugees. With your support, we are trying to help as many kids as possible live fulfilling lives, surrounded by God's love.

Global Action in Africa
Thanks to you, these partners are changing lives.
The best way to help kids is through local organizations. That is why we work with local churches, orphanges, and ministries. They know the kids around them. They know how to help quickly.

Okuenyi Village Orphanage and School
You helped construct a new orphanage to care for neglected, abandoned, and abused orphans. The orphanage provides a safe and nourishing home, as well as a quality education for the orphans.
You are Helping Children Rise Above Poverty
Poverty often mean trying to survive without everyday essentials like food, water or shelter.
In Africa, that’s the reality for almost half of the population.
Without their most basic needs accounted for, African children cannot begin to imagine a path out of poverty.
Your support creates lasting change for children and youth in Africa.
Sharing hope and encouragement doesn't stop with the children we support. We'd also like to be an encouragement to you.
