Orphan's Hope Celebrates 10 Years

 

We now have 44 double orphans at GH and are helping many other orphanages. We have started construction of a new house.

 

See the great design EMI did for us (Click Here)
Funds are still needed and partners welcome to help.

 

- Baby "Grace" is our newest addition to our Garden Home orphanage. She came to us at one month old. Her mother died in child birth and father died of malaria.

 

 

 

- Over 2000 young people and children came for camps at Garden Home in April 2011.  It was a highlight for children from the orphanages.

 

- Our farm is about 15 minutes from Garden Home, with a total of over 75 acres now.  A new 1.8 acre fish pond has 5000 fish. Another pond has about 10,000 talapia fish.  100% of all fish and income go to help the orphanages, many of which are really struggling.  Work is being done to expand our fish farming ponds, as partners help us.  We have a very good opportunity to expand.

 

-  Completion of our youth center in Simferopol, Ukraine was delayed due to lack of funds but should be complete by this fall.  It will be a hub of activity, with programs both for teens who have left the orphanages and children still living in orphanages.

- Wesleyan High School sent another great team to work with Orphan's Hope for the fifth year now and plan to work with Orphan's Hope in 2012. They work with us in the orphanages, with the teens in our transition program, helped with renovations for our new youth center, and gave funds. 

- Our beautiful new transition home in Ukraine is up an running.  A donor gave for purchasing, interior finishing, and furnishings of the this much needed home for girls and boys coming out of the orphanages.

- 50 Orphanage House Parents and Staff came for Leadership and Family Training to GH. OH and Singapore leaders began a series providing of courses for Orphanage Directors, Staff, and Families, on building quality families that last and raising children. It is very important to provide a good example for the many orphans in these homes who have lacked families. We are thankful for our friends at ROLC in their generous giving and volunteer teams working with us. 

 

- Relief food provided every month this year to homes without food in Asia. Almost every day we have homes coming to us that need food to feed the children.

 

- Land purchased for Anna Orphanage. A very big thank you to our partners from the United Kingdom who made this possible.

 

Funds were donated again this year from a Singapore church, to cover Orphan's Hope office rent for one year in Yangon, where we have many activities including our sewing school for teenage girls from the orphanages which is on our first floor, English and computer classses, and weekly prayer times with orphanage directors on Fridays.
