There is a pandemic going on of enormous proportions.
World Relief Reports that the HIV/AIDS crisis is creating an unprecedented number of children whose parents have died of AIDS. Globally, 44 million children will have lost at least their mother to AIDS by the year 2010.
According to a joint report of UNAIDS and UNICEF released in July 2004, every 14 seconds a child is orphaned by AIDS worldwide.
It is a well known fact that there are over 140 million orphaned children in the world.
50% of the world lives on less than $2.00 per day. (Bill Hybels)
The solution is you. You and I joining our resources to help orphans and vulnerable children to have an opportunity to experience hope –and the love of Jesus Christ. We have so much and they have so little. Wikipedia defines the common malady of “Affluenza” in the following way:
Affluenza, n. a painful, contagious, socially transmitted condition of overload, debt, anxiety and waste resulting from the dogged pursuit of more. (de Graaf, 2002)
affluenza, n. 1. The bloated, sluggish and unfulfilled feeling that results from efforts to keep up with the Jones's. 2. An epidemic of stress, overwork, waste and indebtedness caused by the pursuit of the American Dream. 3. An unsustainable addiction to economic growth. (PBS)
You have resources to give. Would you like to make a difference in a tangible way for a hurting child? Will you consider partnering with us to reach the forgotten children around the globe? YOU are the solution.
- This ministry to orphans and vulnerable children began in 1999 after a couple adopted a child from Russia. A middle-of-the-night prompting by the Holy Spirit began the journey of assisting orphans
- Our mission is to come along side of pre-existing ministries in other countries and enhance their ministry to orphans, street kids, AIDS hospitals, and needy children in general. We only provide assistance to ministries who are evangelical and use the resources to spread the good news of Jesus Christ.
- As a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization, we provide orphan home construction grants for orphaned children.
- The ministry began by mailing boxes of clothing …the “warehouse” was a 6’ x 14’ closet! Today we have a building in which we can sort, pack and load boxes of clothing.
- We are assisting in the Ukraine, India and Africa.
- We ship using 40 foot shipping containers to send nearly 800 boxes of clothing—over 20,000 pounds of clothing!
- A limited number of monthly child sponsorships are also available. ( provide education, health care, food, etc )
