Did you know that over 30,000 children in Haiti are living in orphanages? Or that 80% of those children are not “true orphans” and have a parent or relative living nearby? Children are separated from their families and placed in orphanages for many reasons, but poverty is the main factor.
Imagine the decision a family has to make: place your child in an orphanage that promises three meals a day, medical care, and an education, while grieving not being with your child, or continue to struggle to meet their needs, unsure of the future.
What do you choose?

who we are

Thank you for your steadfast partnership. We are encouraged by your prayers. We want to keep you updated on the situation in Haiti and the work of Child Hope during this crisis and ask you to continue to pray and support as you are able.
