As we enter the Christmas season, we are overwhelmed with gratitude reflecting on all we’ve accomplished together this year.
Your support has forever changed the lives of at-risk children, orphans, and survivors across three continents.
A quick global overview of the reach you’ve helped us achieve this year by God’s grace:
🇺🇬 Uganda: 962 students served daily; 371 orphans cared for through our boarding school and girls’ home
🇮🇳 India: 190 children supported in 5 Hope Centers + 62 children in our orphan care program
🇵🇭 Philippines: 105 children supported with tutoring, meals, school supplies, and a family-style home for girls in need
🇲🇲 Myanmar: 109 orphans provided with a loving home, education, and nutrition 24/7
🇳🇵 Nepal: 26 girls graduated from our rehabilitation home and trade school, and you supported 12 of our graduated orphans with college scholarships
🇨🇴 Colombia: 18 refugee survivor girls received tutoring, mentorship, and skills training at Casa Vida
🇦🇷 Argentina: 150 low-income toddlers supported with healthy meals and early education every weekday
Your generosity has also allowed us to serve over 100,000 meals monthly, expand educational opportunities, and carry out sustainable farming projects that feed children while empowering communities.
Now, as we approach year’s end, we’re setting sights on new horizons:
1️⃣ Sustainable Farmland in The Philippines:
We’re seeking $14,000 to make some major upgrades to our Cebu, Philippines farmland. This will give us a long awaited paved entrance road to provide better access during the rainy season, an entire perimeter fence to protect our property and keep our clever goats from escaping, as well as several other improvements.
Here’s our artist’s rendering of the Cebu farmland with new road and perimeter fence visualized!
2️⃣ Expansion & Remodel at Casa Vida:
We seek $11,000 to provide Casa Vida with new classroom space and a renovated courtyard which will include new covered patio space for the girls. Casa Vida is our trade school serving refugee survivor girls with education, skills training, counseling, and mentorship just a short walk from the Venezuela border in Colombia.
Here’s our artist’s sketch of Casa Vida with a visualization of the improved courtyard and new classroom space!
3️⃣ Global Emergency Fund Goal:
With a target of $200,000, this fund will ensure that we can respond instantly to global emergencies, support not-yet-sponsored orphans, and welcome new rescues without hesitation.
This past year, our emergency fund came to the rescue countless times thanks to your generosity in helping us replenish the fund last December!
4️⃣ Your Support Matched:
In very encouraging news, we’re thrilled to announce that this year, every dollar you give will be matched up to $100,000, doubling the impact of your giving!
5️⃣ This year we’re setting a participation goal of 110 donors!
Last year we reached 100 donors during the campaign, so this year we’re believing we can grow with 10% more.
To recap, your gift to our year-end fund will help:
👉 Sustain our Philippines agricultural initiative
👉 Expand & enhance our trade school in Colombia
👉 Empower us to be there when emergencies strike
👉 Ensure continual care for not-yet-sponsored children and new rescues
Please give today to help us meet these essential goals while seeing your generosity doubled!
Your support means everything to these survivors and children.
It only takes a few moments to fill out the giving form, but those moments will make an impact that lasts for years.
