From Despair to Hope: The Impact of Orphan Care
Programs in Africa
For two decades, our partners operating in African villages and local communities have been working to provide loving homes for orphans. This includes the basic necessities of food, clean water and health care, as well as an education so they can build a better life as they enter adulthood.
“Thank you for making me the person I am today. I live, smile, and hope because of you.” –Michelle, from Kabawata Orphanage and Transit Center, Zambia
