How You Can Help
We serve communities in Africa where need is at its greatest, but the support structure is at its lowest. We believe that, in accordance with the Word of God, the responsibility to care for the widow, the orphan, the sick and the dying is placed on His church.

Advocate
It is crucial for the children of Africa, who have no voice, that we tell their story so that as many as possible here in the UK have the opportunity to bring them hope. So we would encourage as many as possible to raise awareness, especially those who have visited and know the children by name.
Give
£15 per month is enough to provide one child with the 3 essential services they need for one month: a daily nutritious meal; access to basic healthcare, and education.
Please help us to bring hope to as many of the children as possible in the 62 communities we serve in Africa. We need your help as many of these still receive no support at all. If you would like to give, please click below:
