In the heart of every child is a hunger for home. Not just for food and a place to sleep, but for safety and community. Most importantly, for love. This is the driving force behind God Is Love Orphanage, which is far more than just a sanctuary for unwanted orphans. It is a family, a place where children not only find shelter but where they can flourish, grow, and experience the love and care they deserve. This mission operates as a nearly self-sustaining organization, with a working farm, a vibrant school, and a thriving community, all while receiving no government assistance. This independence allows the orphanage to maintain a high level of care and attention to each child, ensuring that they are not just surviving but thriving.
Currently, the orphanage is home to around 75 children, each with their own unique story, background, and needs. While these children require the essential things—food, clothing, education, and shelter—there is a deeper, more profound need that goes beyond these basic necessities. Every child deserves the opportunity to create lasting memories, to experience joy and adventure, and to feel loved and cared for in ways that nurture their spirit and self-worth. God Is Love Orphanage is built on the belief that childhood should be filled with fun times, activities, and experiences that allow these children to feel like they are part of something special. For many of them, their early lives may have been marked by hardship, but here, they are given the chance to start anew and build a future filled with hope and opportunity.
The orphanage’s self-sustaining model plays a key role in providing for the children’s needs. The working farm contributes to food production, while the school fosters educational growth, providing children with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. However, the demands of daily life and the continuous growth of the mission require additional support. That’s where the generosity of donors and supporters makes all the difference. The budget for this project is dynamic, adjusting according to the resources available. The more funds raised, the more the orphanage can accomplish, not just in terms of necessities but in creating enriching and life-changing experiences for the children. From funding exciting activities and educational trips to covering basic day-to-day expenses like toothpaste, doctor’s visits, and utility bills, every contribution directly impacts the well-being of the children.
The ultimate goal of this mission is not just to meet immediate needs but to ensure that these children grow up with the best possible start in life. Beyond providing them with basic needs, the mission fosters a spirit of adventure, compassion, and service to others. These children, who may have faced unimaginable hardships, are given the tools and support to build a bright future, filled with opportunities to give back to their communities and help others in need. They are not just taught to survive but to thrive, to dream, and to make a difference in the world around them.
Through the support of generous donors and a dedicated team of staff, this orphanage can continue to change lives. It offers a place of safety, security, and love, where children can heal, grow, and discover their own potential. It’s more than just a place to live—it’s a place to learn, to belong, and to be loved. Together, we can help provide these children with a future full of promise, a future where they can go forward into the world with confidence, a heart full of compassion, and a desire to serve others. With your help, we can ensure that these children not only survive but flourish, creating memories and experiences that will last a lifetime and setting them on a path to change the world for the better.
