Calling all cat lovers! We’ve got a new friend for you! S**** says he loves cats (and the color red). And in his village in northeastern India, cats are great house pets. S**** lives with his mom, dad and two older sisters. His mom and dad are day laborers, and they work hard to provide a safe home for everyone. Living with HIV makes things challenging, but the Gan Sabra Community Program ensures S**** and his family have the medicines they need as well as food and support for school. That care has made a huge difference in S****‘s life. Your sponsorship would bring a smile to S****‘s face (especially if you like cats, or maybe eggs, dal, and juice). Just $36 a month ensures he continues to receive the life-giving care he needs to thrive. orphanoutreach.org/sponsorship/24748

Meet Saron, our first college graduate from Gan Sabra! Navigating life as a child or young adult can be challenging, especially when that life is filled with loss and heartache. Saron’s story was filled with that heartache. Her parents divorced, her father passed away, and the little girl in a remote village in India found herself living with relatives who struggled to provide her with even the most basic of care. Saron’s health began to deteriorate, and a doctor delivered heartbreaking news to the young child. She was HIV-positive. At 31 million, India has the largest number of children who are orphaned anywhere in the world. One in every ten Indian children will be orphaned in their lifetime. And each year, 60,000 children are born with HIV. Saron was welcomed at Gan Sabra, a ministry program supported by Orphan Outreach. There, her diagnosis was not seen as a death sentence. The staff provided the wraparound care she needed, and she began to thrive. Read the rest of Saron’s story on our website, and learn more about the power of sponsorship and partnership in caring for orphaned and vulnerable children! Thank you to @myporters for their ongoing support of the ministries of Orphan Outreach. The link’s in our bio!

This college student would love your support! I***** currently studies at Riga Construction College in Latvia. She is hopeful about her future, and is thankful for the care she receives through our Aging Out Initiative. Navigating adult life can be challenging, but for I***** and her friends, it would be overwhelming without the safety net of physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual support provided to them through the ministry. I***** spent much of her childhood moving back and forth from relatives to orphanages. Poverty took its toll on her family, and she wondered if there would ever something that felt like home. I***** still hopes to one day be reunified with her family, and she has been able to visit them from time to time. A helpful, active and friendly young woman, I***** knows the power of faith and prayer, and she asks that you pray for her success at school. She would also love to have a sponsor—another person in her circle of support who understands the importance of things like a good education. You can be that sponsor today. Your monthly support will ensure she continues to receive the essentials of care needed to thrive. Learn more and say “yes” to sponsorship!

Who thinks chickens are fun? THIS GIRL DOES! S***** lives with her grandparents who provide her with care and love. Her granddad is a day laborer, and it can be difficult to find consistent work to take care of even the most basic things. That’s where the Gan Sabra Community Program makes a difference. S***** receives medical care and food, and the team works with her so she can stay in school too. When you sponsor S*****, you sponsor a girl who loves to sing, dance, and play badminton.

Sponsorship ensures she continues to receive the care she needs—and extends that care to her grandparents too! It’s time to say “yes” to sponsorship! Get to know S**** now. Her link’s in our bio!

We’re celebrating because Diego’s WALKING! Diego is a happy lad who attends Down Guatemala. At first, it was difficult for him to be integrated into classroom settings with other students, but his dedicated team of instructors and therapists, he now feels confident in a classroom.

But thanks again to the guidance of educators, physiotherapists, and the unconditional support of his mother, Diego has taken his first steps! His mom’s heart has been filled with renewed hope. The Down Guatemala staff is overjoyed. And Diego? He can’t stop smiling! What a testimony of perseverance and dedication! Now, we’ve got some news that will make YOU smile. Diego is available for sponsorship right now. That’s right! You can join Diego on his journey! Get to know him now, and say “yes” today!

He can’t wait to be a first-responder! Ask Peteris what he wants to be when he grows up, and he smiles. “A firefighter or police officer.” He’s not sure exactly which first-responder he’ll be, but he knows that caring for his Latvian community is what he wants to do. Peteris has two brothers and a sister. He is thankful for the care he receives at the Day Centre, for it’s there he is sure to receive tutoring and a good healthy meal every afternoon (pasta with beef is his favorite food). He also has a safe space to talk about challenges that arise at school and home. And he learns important lessons from scripture. His favorite Bible story is about Joseph and his brothers. This future first-responder enjoys sports, swimming, and math class—and he counts sleeping as one of his favorite things right now. We agree. There’s nothing like a nap! There’s one more thing Peteris really likes, and that’s having a sponsor like you to encourage him and help make sure he continues to receive the essentials of care he needs to thrive. Say, “I’ve got you, Peteris.” Say yes to sponsorship today.

A FUTURE AND A HOPE FOR THIS FLIGHT ATTENDANT! Mathu is fascinated by human behavior and loves to study psychology. She’s funny and helpful, always willing to come alongside someone who is having a difficult day to help cheer them up. When she’s not studying, you might find her playing basketball, singing, or dancing (in fact, she’s taught Orphan Outreach mission teams how to dance too). She’s also always ready to share a pizza and a Coke! Mathu would love to be a flight attendant someday, and her favorite scripture is Jeremiah 29:11: For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Eternal God, “plans for peace, not evil, to give you a future and hope—never forget that.“ Your sponsorship will ensure Mathu receives the essentials of care she needs to thrive and pursue her dreams. orphanoutreach.org/sponsorship/15396
