What We Did
The Home of Hope orphanages were among very few foreign-run orphanages in China. Through a remarkable series of events we were given the opportunity to love and care for the homeless children.
The need is great. Since January 2000 we have identified hundreds of orphans, and we know there are many, many more. These little guys and girls come from all kinds of backgrounds and have experienced terrible tragedies and hardships in their short lives. Without our intervention they have little hope of a future. Their choices are very limited if they even make it to adulthood at all.
Our desire was to nurture these children in an environment that will give them the opportunity to become upstanding, productive citizens with a knowledge of right and wrong and with good character. Without our help many of these kids would never even reach adulthood; those who did manage to survive would be destined to pick and shovel coal out of the mountains or scavenge for things to sell or eat. It is thrilling to offer them a better life, and to teach them about joy and happiness and eternity.
