“I get so excited every time the parents of the children of the Early Childhood Development program at NiCo send us photos showing us how their children continue to do their learning activities at home. That motivates me even more to continue doing the best resources for our kids.” Cubas Martinez delights in creating learning packets for the children. While schools may be closed, learning continues. That’s how hope is restored.
Your prayers and continued support are making it possible for Cubas and the NiCo to meet the needs of children and their families in Honduras. Your donations ensure essentials of care are provided as families are strengthened. The link to give is in our bio!
She may be little, but she’s got big plans to help her community. Verany lives with her mother and two older sisters who are both attending school. Verany wants to be like them, so she’s excited to be in the Montessori program at the Community Care Center. She’s thankful that her aunt gives her family a place to live, and she’s proud of her mom for working hard as a cleaning lady. Verany enjoys playing with dolls and thinks she would like to become a doctor someday. She can’t wait to return to Montessori, where she learns how to count and spell, and how to help her mom with things like picking up her shoes and doing her homework. Verany would love to have a sponsor to encourage her. We’d love for you to become a sponsor so you can be part of the transformation of a child’s life as they gain independence and wisdom and as their family is strengthened.

In Honduras, prisons provide special facilities for moms with little ones. When critical infant care supplies grew scarce due to the COVID pandemic, DINAF (the agency that oversees the protection of children and adolescents) reached out to our NGO, Asociacion Manos Extendidas. A partnership originally designed to bring foster care to Honduras is now protecting the rights of children and strengthening families often forsaken. Formula, milk, juice, and baby food was provided, thanks to the generosity of our donors!
Yes, together we continue to restore hope to orphaned and vulnerable children in new and powerful ways.
Right now, in Honduras, hope looks like food and supplies for not only the children in our NiCo community program, but for their families too. Hope looks like learning kits created by teachers so education may continue even when schools are closed. Hope looks like infant care for babies living with their moms in prison. Hope looks like the prayers and support of friends, both near and far.
Right now, hope is being restored in more ways than ever. Your prayers and generosity are making the difference. Thank you for linking arms with us as we serve orphaned and vulnerable children—together.

What does hope look like? Right now, in Guatemala, hope looks like meals for families unable to work due to social safeguards that have communities in lockdown. Right now, hope looks like learning packets so students can keep studying, even without things like computers and classrooms.

They call it the Fountain of Hope. In Mathare Slum, the water well at Patmos School continues to provide clean drinking water for families as social safeguarding continues for the country of Kenya.

Melina lives with both parents and youngest brother. She enjoys helping her mom at home with chores, and even in the midst of social safeguarding, she is doing what she can do study so her grades remain strong. Her goal is to be on honor roll, and we’re cheering for her!
Melina is in 9th grade, and her goal is to be a pediatrician, so she can provide care to children in her community—especially those who are vulnerable. Her parents are proud of her. They didn’t have access to education, and they will do what they can to make sure she stays in school. But they need your help.
Your sponsorship ensures Melina has the essentials of care she needs to thrive as a student. It not only equips her, but it strengthens her community as well. Few girls graduate high school and attend university. She wants to change history. You can help make that a reality.

“How may we help others?” Talk to the staff at Dar-Ul-Fazl in India, and you’ll hear thanks and praise to the Lord for His provision and His protection. So when the children asked what they might be able to do to serve the vulnerable, the response was “Let’s learn to stitch.” Facemasks are being made for others in the community, and the kids also gathered up their coins to make a donation to a local hospital in need of PPE for their doctors and nurses. The children have much to teach us all about restoring hope. We all have something to give.
Your continued prayers and support mean so much to us right now. Together, we truly are restoring hope. Get the latest updates, and get involved by clicking the link in our bio.
Happy Mother’s Day from the children we serve around the world! Your prayers and support are gifts to them throughout the year! (Featured: little ones from our Early Childhood Development program at NiCo in Honduras).

For young moms and their little ones in Latvia, times like this can feel overwhelming. But mentors and counselors are there to help—with online lessons, regular check-ins, and even fun ideas to transform simple things at home into moments for discovery and learning. And when toddlers asked if the Easter Bunny was coming, the Family Support Centre responded with, “Of course.” The Gospel is lived out every day that hope is restored in big and small ways. Your prayers and your ongoing support make sure the vulnerable are provided care for now and for the future.
Let’s keep restoring hope—together.

We’ve talked a lot about hope lately. That’s because we see it being restored each time a family is provided food and supplies or a child is given a learning kit designed to help them study even in homes with extremely limited resources. Our global Orphan Outreach family is doing all they can to provide compassionate care to orphaned and vulnerable children and families. We look forward to the day when programs like the Community Care Center reopen, but the ministry of the Community Care Center continues. And that’s hope restored.

Pizza, PowerPoint, and Big Plans.
Azriel lives at home with his mother. He likes doing karate and eating pizza. His favorite subject in school is math and his favorite Bible story is about the Lost Treasure. At home, he is responsible to do his chores—and he always does his homework. At CadaNiño, he is learning PowerPoint and programming. He also takes math classes there. Azriel can’t wait to return to see his friends, and even now, he’s practicing all he’s been learning.

“One of the hidden blessings of walking in the morning is that I can experience the sunrise every single morning. I don’t get the chance inside the four walls of a gym. But outside, in nature, breathing fresh air, hearing the birds singing, and watching a beautiful, unique sunrise every single morning—that’s something I don’t want to take for granted.
“The majesty of this morning miracle, the consistency of the sunrise, the earth-wide impact and scale and scope dwarfs any of my concerns, worries and anxiety. It puts COVID-19 into perspective.” Rey Diaz takes us outside for a lesson in trust and faithfulness. Let this special devotional be part of your day.

“As I walked away, I was thinking, ‘Man, these little girls are orphans and if they had an accident like my son, who’s gonna take them to the hospital? Who’s gonna take care of them? Who’s gonna wipe up their tears?” and I just sensed God say to me, ‘That’s what I’ve called you to do. That’s what Orphan Outreach is doing and it’s what I want you to do. You’re there because these kids don’t have the family they need. They don’t have people to love on them. They need a father.’” Rey Diaz shares a powerfully personal story about his “why” of orphan care.
In this season, let it remind you of your “why” too.
Together, we can restore hope for orphaned and vulnerable children. Even now.
In Colonia Santa Fe, the students of CadaNiño are receiving care—even now. The team at CadaNiño made sure families received food, cleaning supplies, and facemasks.

Now to Him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before His glory without fault and with unspeakable joy, to the only God, our Savior, be glory and majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before time was, now, and in all ages to come, Amen. Jude 1:24-25
Happy Easter from our kids around the world, and from all of us at Orphan Outreach.
What do you do when you can’t be together? You share the reminders of how wonderful it will be when you see each other again. Here’s to love that can’t be confined. Here’s to hope being restored.
“I’ve never met a kid who said they want to grow up in an orphanage. They all want families. Every one of them dreams of being more than what people expect them to be. They have dreams of being doctors and lawyers and teachers—and that’s true for every kid around the world. It’s a blessing to be able to walk through life with them; through the tragedies and victories. It creates a bond that’s hard to describe.” Mike Douris, Orphan Outreach President.

“I was reminded of Mathew 18:2-4 after the disciples try to stop a child from approaching Jesus. Jesus called to the child to come, saying, ‘…Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven.’” Mike Douris shares the story of the little girl who defines the mission and vision of Orphan Outreach. Meet her today.

Ministry to orphaned and vulnerable children doesn’t end, especially in troubling times. In fact, the words of James 1:27 become more powerful than ever:
Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction,
and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
That’s exactly what’s happening in the countries we serve around the world.
Here are just a few of our many reports from the field:
• In Guatemala, families have little access to cleaning products, so staff at the CCC is making soap and delivering care kits to homes. Food packets have been delivered to families served by CadaNino, and food is also being provided to the families served by Down Guatemala.
• In Honduras, the NiCo team is staying connected to students and their families via phone calls. Local officials have given permission for food to be distributed to families.
• In Russia, technology is keeping our team connected daily to orphanage directors in the midst of quarantine, as well as to each young adult in our aging out initiative as they navigate life so that their essential needs may be met.
• In Ukraine, group meetings aren’t currently possible but our team continues to connect with each young adult in our aging out initiative to ensure their needs are being met.
• In Latvia, food and baby care essentials are being delivered to young moms and their little ones, and technology is assisting the team in being able to provide care for young adults in our aging out initiative. Hot meals are also being delivered to children attending the Day Centre
• In Kenya, water, soap, and food is being delivered to families regularly.
• In India, Gan Sabra community program families are receiving essential medicines.

Thank you for your continued prayers and support in this unprecedented season. We are all truly in this together.
Our heroes on the frontlines around the world continue to care for orphaned and vulnerable children. In Kenya, food, soap, and water are delivered to families. And before schools closed, students demonstrated all they had learned about the importance of hygiene. Thank you for your prayers and your continued support. Hope is STILL being restored.
“One of the many things I love about working at Orphan Outreach is our ability to take a step back and really consider the work we are doing. We have this ability to adapt based on the current needs of our programs. I love that our focus is child-specific. We try to address each need of every child, uniquely. We don’t have “cookie-cutter” programs.” Katherine Cheng, Orphan Outreach Vice President of Programs.
Are you ready to serve orphaned and vulnerable children well? We’ve got five ways for you to start today. The link’s in our bio!
Learn to do good.
Seek justice.
Help the oppressed.
Defend the cause of orphans.
Fight for the rights of widows.
Isaiah 1:17
Today and every day, we restore hope—together.
A sponsor is a love letter, a note of encouragement, a faithful friend who says, “I’m here to support your dreams, and I’ll make sure you have the essentials you need.” Say “yes” to sponsorship. Your monthly support helps provide physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual care for orphaned and vulnerable children.
Meet the waiting children on our website. The link’s in our bio.
Ministry to orphaned and vulnerable children doesn’t end, especially in troubling times. In fact, the words of James 1:27 become more powerful than ever:
Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction,
and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
That’s exactly what’s happening in the countries we serve around the world.
Here are just a few of our many reports from the field:
• In Guatemala, families have little access to cleaning products, so staff at the CCC is making soap and delivering care kits to homes. And food packets are being prepared to deliver to families served by CadaNiño.
• In Honduras, the NiCo team is staying connected to students and their families via phone calls since the country has issued shelter in place requirements. Local officials have given permission for food to be distributed to families.
• In Russia, technology is keeping our team connected daily to orphanage directors in the midst of quarantine, as well as to each young adult in our aging out initiative as they navigate life so that their essential needs may be met.
• In Ukraine, group meetings aren’t currently possible but our team continues to connect with each young adult in our aging out initiative to ensure their needs are being met.
• In Latvia, food and baby care essentials are being delivered to young moms and their little ones, and technology is assisting the team in being able to provide care for young adults in our aging out initiative. Hot meals are also being delivered to families served by the Day Centre in Karosta.
• In Kenya, water, soap, and food is being delivered to families, and our social workers are continuing to educate families on the importance of keeping the basic hygiene the students have learned in school.
• In India, Gan Sabra has restricted visits to the home in an effort to safeguard the children, and the staff continues to connect with families in the community by phone.
Our Orphan Outreach global family is actively seeking out new and creative ways to care each day. You make that possible. We’re praying for you right now, and we thank you for standing with us.
Ministry doesn’t distance itself in times of crisis. Here’s how hope is STILL being restored in Latvia. Thank you for your prayers and support!

“I tell people I was 15 when I went on my first trip, and a lot of them are shocked. And yes, I guess it is pretty wild that my parents let me go that young, even with Stacey as my chaperone. But I think Orphan Outreach is probably one of the best organizations to travel with as a teen. It gives you a chance to experience other cultures and learn what faith looks like outside of your own Christian bubble. I think it challenges you to learn how to put your faith into action.” Caitlin has traveled with Orphan Outreach for a decade, and she continues to learn with every journey how to serve orphaned and vulnerable children in purposeful ways. Read her story, and then pray about where you might go with Orphan Outreach! The link is in our bio!
“The orphan is not a cause. The orphan is not an issue. The orphan has a human face, and that face is Galilean. Jesus tells us that when we see the poor, the weak, the vulnerable, the tossed aside, we see Him there.” ~Russell Moore

The Children’s Hope Dinner may be postponed, but the ministry work being done around the world for orphaned and vulnerable children continues! Orphan Outreach president Mike Douris shares updates about the Children’s Hope Dinner, along with three great ways you can help a child today! The link’s in our bio!
One of the things we love about ministering to kids is the people we meet along the way. Tito Rivera is an encourager, an advocate, and a friend to @downguatemala. Each week, he teaches Zumba classes to the kids. Each year, he is the host for #NighttoShineGT. And every day, he is a faithful prayer warrior for the rights of vulnerable children in Guatemala and around the world. We are honored to have @chuperabuelotitorevera as a partner in ministry!

SHE’S A LITTLE ARTIST.
Anyeli is five years old and is learning so much in the Early Childhood Development program at NiCo! She lives with her mom and dad, and she likes to play with her friends. Her favorite colors are pink and blue, and she thinks those colors are perfect for painting. If you visited her family, she’d likely ask for fried chicken and rice as as special meal to welcome you. Fried chicken and rice is her favorite.
You can help ensure Anyeli receives the essentials of care she needs to thrive by becoming her sponsor! Only $36 a month provides her with physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual care! Say “yes” to sponsorship today! Her link is in our profile!
Schools may be closed in Guatemala due to C19, but the selfless work being done by our amazing team at the Outreach Center in Chimaltenango doesn’t end. The teachers have educational resources for students to continue to learn. And because so few families have access to cleaning supplies, the staff is making soap for care kits that are being delivered to homes in the community.
Kids are our priority. And with your help, we’re continuing to restore hope to orphaned and vulnerable children in the countries we serve around the world.
Thanks for your prayers and your support!

“I think the big picture of this work is seeing generations transformed. It’s giving these kids, and every child after them, a different destiny. The scope of what this foster care system will accomplish is bigger than any of us.” Francisco Campos, Executive Director of Asociacion Manos Extendidas (the Orphan Outreach NGO in Honduras)talks about the future of foster care as the first nine families complete their training.

God, you’re such a safe and powerful place to find refuge!
You’re a proven help in time of trouble—
more than enough and always available whenever I need You. Psalm 46:1.
In light of heightened concerns regarding the spread of the CoronaVirus (COVID-19), you may be wondering about the effect of this outbreak on the orphaned and vulnerable children we serve. Our utmost priority is their health and safety and the people who serve those children worldwide. We are following organizations such as the CDC and the WHO as well as leaning on the international staff for information specific to their countries.
Thanks be to God, we currently do not have any reports of children in Orphan Outreach supported programs around the world diagnosed with COVID-19.
Our U.S. and international staff are closely monitoring developments, and in an effort to prevent the transmission of the virus among the communities we serve, we are suspending all non-essential travel to the countries we serve for the next 60 days. We are still planning on summer and fall mission teams and will be carefully monitoring international travel and communicating directly with those trip participants.
Join us in praying for the children and families served by Orphan Outreach, for their protection and health and for peace that surpasses all understanding to rest on these communities that are often left vulnerable.
God bless you for your care and concern for His children.
Mike Douris
President
Orphan Outreach
Lord, You know the hopes of the helpless. Surely You will hear their cries and comfort them. You will bring justice to the orphans and the oppressed, so mere people can no longer terrify them. Psalm 10:18
IT’S TIME TO SPONSOR ARUN.
This wonderful young man and his big sister live with their aunt and uncle, since mom and dad have to live in a different part of the country in order to find employment. He loves to play soccer, and he wants to be a driver when he grows up. At school, he excels in Nepali studies. He struggles in social studies, and is thankful for the tutoring provided each afternoon at the Godawari Education Center. There, he also receives a nutritious snack and loving encouragement from a staff who wants his life—and his future—to be stronger.
Your support ensures Arun receives ongoing care and the essentials he needs to thrive. It’s time to sponsor Arun now. The link’s in our bio!

“I’ve rubbed shoulders with a lot of different organizations and one thing I’ve learned is that it’s easier to go shallow than to go deep. We could be in thirty different countries, serving 100,000 kids if all we did was give out a meal or a Bible. I don’t mean to criticize anyone; this work is hard and complicated. But we are constantly asking ourselves, ‘Are we making a real impact in the lives of the children in our programs?’ Our programs are meant to go deep. We want to walk alongside these kids. We want to walk into their mess, into their tragedies and trauma, and make sure they’re getting the healing they need. We want to make sure they’re meeting their educational goals and that their basic needs are met. And, above all else, we want to make sure that they’re connecting with God.” Rey Diaz invites you to discover the “something” you can do to serve orphaned and vulnerable children.

SHE LOVES COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY—AND SHE NEEDS A SPONSOR.
Carla lives with her mother and father. She likes playing soccer and eating beef soup. Her favorite subject in school is math and her favorite story in the Bible the story of Goliath. At home she is responsible to do her homework and chores. When she grows up Carla wants to be a business owner, and we believe she’s got what it takes to do just that. At CadaNino, she’s mastered five computer programs in just one year. She’s learning now how to make presentations on PowerPoint, and she says she loves being creative.
Carla would love to have a sponsor to offer encouragement and support as she works hard to achieve her goals. Your monthly support provides her with the essentials of care she needs! Don’t wait. Let today be the day. Her link is in our bio!

Behind every story of hope we share, there is a deeper story of service and commitment. Our staff at NiCo invests in ensuring each child in our early development and after-school programs receives the care they need and deserve.

“We give children a safe place to be. When children are in a safe place, they open up, step out, and try new things, when they learn new things, their joy of curiosity and discovery grows, and as their joy of discovery grows, they build confidence, and when they feel confident and joyful, they develop inner strength.
“This process creates an upward spiral of positive reinforcement that can break the cycle of poverty into which they were born.” Timothy Martiny and the team at @cada.nino serve the Lord by serving children in one of the most vulnerable communities in Guatemala City. We’re honored to partner with CadaNiño to help ensure each child receives the essentials of care needed to thrive. Learn more about the ways you can make a difference in a child’s life today.

It was the summer of 2017 when Julie Treadwell first packed her bags and boarded a plane for Guatemala. “I went with my two daughters who were 13 and 14 at the time,” Julie says. “We went on a mother daughter trip and we signed up at the last minute primarily for social reasons. One of my girls was having troubles with friends. When we were invited, I felt like it was an answered prayer.” What happened on that trip—and what has happened since—has changed the life of Julie and her daughters in powerful ways.

“I have a dream that one day the orphans and street children around will have a place they can call home. We especially would like to watch out for the HIV/AIDS orphaned children, who are always discriminated against and ignored by a society which views them as outcasts. The work we are doing has always been challenging but we are driven by the passion of helping children in need.” Partnering with Orphan Outreach, Patmos Junior School Headmaster Richard Wanjala and his staff have helped that dream become a reality for children living in Mathare Slum.
You can be part of the dream today. In fact, we’ve got five great ways for you to get involved now. The link’s in our bio!

“I will never be able to put into words what it meant to be able to be the one to baptize some of the girls at government home in Guatemala. Their abusers and past guilt and shame don’t have a hold on them anymore. Their identity isn’t in what has happened to them, but instead in the One that provides unoffendable grace. It was the most joyous day, one that I’ll never forget.” Caitlin Moynihan has served on Orphan Outreach mission trips for a decade—and every opportunity is a reminder that we are here to come alongside others to offer support, care, love, and dignity.
We’d love for you to join us this year. Summer trips to Ukraine, Honduras, and Russia are now open for registration.
“When we founded Orphan Outreach, we really had one goal. That was to have a ministry that glorified Jesus Christ, a ministry that was rooted in God’s heart for the orphan, a ministry that would live that out in the way we cared for children around the world.”

Hanging on a bulletin board, over a desk overflowing with textbooks, is a colorful drawing of two perfectly imperfect stick figures. It’s a child’s sweet offering to a friend, a mentor, living halfway around the world and her sweet reminder of the eight-day trip that brought them together.
The picture was drawn for Allison Skelton, a sophomore at Abilene Christian University (ACU). In July of 2019, Allison traveled with Orphan Outreach to Dar-UI-Fazl Children’s Home in India, where she met six-year-old Lany*. The little girl changed Allison’s life. And there are more children ready to change yours.

I want them to see the child who is living in destitute poverty receiving nutritious meals and an education, to see a young mama who is being offered restorative support, to see our special needs kids who are being provided wraparound care. I want them to see what is it that really drives our hearts and to be moved to do their part.“

Our radio partner @wcsgradio hosted Days of Hope to share the power of sponsorship with their listeners. In just two days, EVERY student at Patmos Junior School in Mathare Slum was sponsored! West Michigan, we thank you for the incredible way you are saying “I’ve got you, kid!” to boys and girls who might otherwise not have access to essentials like education, nutritious meals, medical care, and mentoring! WCSG, thank you for your continued support! It’s an honor to partner with you!
“WCSG and its listeners have traveled with us around the world to serve on mission trips,” said Amy Norton, Orphan Outreach VP of Strategic Partnerships, “and when they learned of the tremendous need in Kenya for ongoing support for the kids at Patmos, the employees of the radio station said, ‘We need to do something big—and we believe West Michigan will step up and serve in a powerful way.” Step up they did!

“The main thing is about making a real difference in the life of a kid. We are in it for the long haul, providing quality care. That was the fundamental core when we started Orphan Outreach—and it remains today.” —Mike Douris, Orphan Outreach President.

We get to share stories of hope and celebration with you so often here. Your support helps us provide essentials kids need to thrive in countries around the world. Our work with ministry partners is bathed in prayer, and we take God at His word that He is a good and loving Father to us all.
Some days, though, are washed in grief. Today is one of those days. Our sweet young friend Baby is now resting in the arms of Jesus. Living with HIV, Baby has battled tuberculosis for years. She recently entered into the loving wraparound care of Gan Sabra Home in India. Donors made sure medicines were available. She was given a comfortable home to rest. Our prayer was for healing. Our hope in Christ remains the same. And our commitment to caring for orphaned and vulnerable children, especially those marginalized due to special needs, is stronger than ever. This is why we do what we do. We are thankful to you, our friends, for helping us restore hope.

WALK THE ROAD OF SPONSORSHIP WITH AGNES.
Sweet Agnes lives with both parents and five siblings: one brother and four sisters. She enjoys crocheting and playing with friends, especially netball. At Madeleine School, Agnes is in 8th grade.

For many, it is the orphan care crisis that opens their eyes and hearts to adoption. For Tiffany Taylor Wines, it was her experience with adoption that truly opened her eyes to the extent of the crisis.
In 2007, Tiffany co-founded Orphan Outreach alongside Mike Douris, Amy Seale, and Amy Norton. Today, she serves as the Vice President of Development, overseeing fundraising and major events that fall under the development team.
“For me,” reflected Tiffany, “serving orphans well means understanding the root causes of why children are orphans in the first place. We want to ensure any approach to helping orphaned children involves family preservation and doing what we can do to raise up relatives to care for them. Of course, there will always be children whose family abuses them, and who have no other relatives to take them. For that child, staying with family is not an option, so we need to discern what is the best situation for them. This is, to me, what serving orphans well means.” Read her full story, and learn about ways you can get involved with us in 2020. The link’s in our bio!

Patmos Junior School has a new home in Mathare Slum! The Stephen W. Spencer Community Centre provides students and staff with secure classrooms, indoor restrooms, access to safe, clean drinking water, and more. Enrollment has increased by 50 students this semester alone!
When you sponsor a child through Orphan Outreach, the opportunity to impact that child’s life goes well beyond your financial donation. While many sponsors choose to travel great distances to meet their child, others opt for a more accessible option: letter writing.
Letter writing is a family affair for the Wolfs. And for Brevine, the young man they first got to know at Patmos Junior School in Kenya, sharing experiences with a sponsor on the other side of the world has been a great way to share life and build friendships.
Check out our link in bio, and read the story today. And then become a sponsor!

“The families are so thankful for the attention that we give to the children. They say they can see change in them already. Some children are taking their Montessori learning home, and are telling their parents, ‘In Montessori we greet each other,’ or, ‘In Montessori we learn to respect each other.’ So, they are making an impact on their own families.“

“On our first full day ever in Guatemala as a family with Orphan Outreach, my youngest son, Sam turned to my husband and said, ‘Don’t get mad at me for asking, but are we coming back next year?’ Orphan Outreach forever changed our lives from that day forward. Going on a mission trip opens your heart to receiving and sharing the love of Christ.“
Bev Berry, we couldn’t agree more. Thank you for sharing your testimony with us! Let’s serve together again in 2020!

Orphan Outreach glorifies Jesus Christ by providing the essentials of care every child needs to thrive.

“We have seen this year so many blessings in the lives of the children we have the privilege to serve. One such blessing is of Vanya who not only graduated from University this year but got his first professional job. I met Vanya when he was only a toddler at a baby home in St. Petersburg, Russia.“

“To think Vanya is now in our Aging Out Program in Russia, has finished his university degree and now has a great job is testimony of God’s provision for the orphan. It was not an accident we went to that particular baby home, or that I asked to pick up this child among all the children in the room, or that, every time we thought we had lost him in the system, he reappeared. It was not by mere chance that Amy Norton, our VP of Strategic Partnerships, left a photo with Vanya when he was a little boy that motivated him to search for her as a teen.“

She’s only three years old. But she already has big dreams. Give now to help them come true.
Penelope* is one of the first students to attend the Montessori program at the Community Care Center in Chimaltenango, Guatemala. The acclaimed child-centered educational model has been added to the ministry efforts of the CCC to provide vulnerable children even more resources that will equip them for greater success as young adults.
The Montessori program is perfect for the talkative, cheerful little girl who is inquisitive and eager to learn. Penelope is not only practicing counting and spelling; she’s developing valuable social and communication skills that are helping her at school and at home. She loves to help her teachers by cleaning the tables, and she is eager to come to school each day to discover new things about the world around her and the Lord who loves her. And Penelope can’t wait until the day she is a doctor, using all that she’s learned to serve others who need help and hope.
Kids like Penelope are at the heart of what we do at Orphan Outreach. Working with people just like you, we focus on the essentials of care every child—from toddler to teen—needs to thrive. The Montessori program, and the Community Care Center that serves more than 60 vulnerable children and their families, is funded solely by your gifts.
You enable us to provide physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual care with every contribution.

Even before he lived at House of Grace, Ruby* was part of our family of hope. He was first a student at Rainbow School, where he received all he needed for a quality education, thanks to sponsors from the United States. But school was difficult for the little boy, and he shied away from other kids. Soon, it was discovered that Ruby’s home life was difficult. He became part of the family at House of Grace.
Within only 10 days of that welcome, Ruby’s countenance changed as his fear melted away. He is now eager to talk, loves to laugh, and enjoys singing and dancing. He is doing better in school, and playtime is a joy.
When you support Orphan Outreach, God works through you to help children like Ruby. God’s love is revealed through your time, talent, and treasure.

The holiday spirit was shining brightly in both Dallas and Houston as Women for Orphans Worldwide (WOW) chapters in both cities celebrated the season the way they know best—in service to the orphaned and vulnerable children they love. The two chapters raised nearly $300,000 for Orphan Outreach’s ministry programs in Guatemala.
At the WOW Houston event, chapter president Robin Conner shared, “Some of the most rewarding times as a parent are watching your child embrace other children from cultures that are so different than their own. Because of that love, we’ve grown to support five ministries in Guatemala—two children’s homes, two community outreach programs, and @downguatemala.”
