We are all called to care for orphans, but not all of us are called in the same way. What’s your passion – Adoption and foster care? Donating to provide life-changing medical care to an orphaned or abandoned child in need? Helping to meet the most basic needs of orphaned and abandoned children – like food, water, and clothing? Joining our brigade as an orphan sponsorship partner? We urge you to reflect upon your role, and we would love to have you on our team of orphan care warriors!
We share a love for all children, regardless of where they were born, and we are passionate about our mission. Collectively, we have 46 children, grandchildren, and little ones in Heaven and have gone through 18 adoption processes! We are also fortunate to have many wonderful volunteers that help us meet our goals.
The mission of Open Hearts for Orphans is focused on providing resources in three areas: medical intervention for orphaned and abandoned children, meeting the basic needs of orphaned and abandoned children, and breaking down the financial barriers to adoption by providing “Say Yes” grants to families in the adoption process. In our medical intervention program, we help fund heart and other types of surgeries for orphans in need and provide necessary medical tools/supplies to properly monitor medically fragile children. In our Orphan Care (basic needs) program, we provide food, clothing, beds & bedding, and even home construction for vulnerable families (Uganda) and we have helped countless vulnerable children and families in life-saving and life-changing ways. Through our “Say Yes” adoption grant program, we have helped families in the U.S. adopt children with special needs from 20 countries, helping to break down significant financial barriers in the adoption process. In addition, we promote advocacy and awareness to the orphan crisis and adoption in general through our ARISE program, sharing Adoption Resources, Information, Stories, and Encouragement.
