There is an estimated 147 Million Orphans in the world today.

Staggering.

That is 147 Million children that have lost one or both parents, most uncared for, shuffled between relatives, neighbors or orphanages or simply abandoned to fend for themselves.

The problem seems overwhelming.  How can we each help?  I love this quote from Mother Teresa, “”If I look at the mass, I will never act. If I look at the one, I will.”

Will you consider your role today for the sake of just ONE?  There are MANY sponsorship programs for less than $40 a month, that I have personally seen are making a DIFFERENCE in orphans lives.  Providing food, education, shelter and discipleship.

Here is a list of a few that I KNOW are making a difference on a very personal level!  Check them out or if you would like more information, I would be happy to share all that I know – as I have seen firsthand how these ministries are helping the Orphan!
