Animals are therapy to people, especially for children who are orphans and feel alone and isolated

We are a child sponsorship and child protection organization, but I know from experience that animals are therapy to people, especially for children who are orphans and feel alone and isolated.

Give a gift of a pet to a family

In most cases these animals are neglected and live in a filthy place with hardly any food and this is abuse to the animal. So placing an animal in a loving home will assure their well being and the well being of the children taking care of them.

This is why I started giving goats and chickens and ducks to families in need. They bring joy to me and I am sure to children. Giving animals to orphanages or homes is a good investment as the people who get them get milk and eggs that they can eat and sell to generate income.

Volunteers at Congo School Goma Orphanage

Missionaries from Hungary have gone to stay five months at the school and orphanage we support in Kinshasa, Congo. 

They will be building, planting trees and teaching at the school.

Children with disability can become happy children learning in the school we support in Kinshasa, Congo.

With your help, children with disability can become happy children learning in the school we support in Kinshasa, Congo.

Make a donation to help children in Congo

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is located in the center of the west-central area of sub-Saharan Africa. This is a country that has been severely affected by ongoing violence, which led to a major decline in the economy, leading to poverty, disease, and malnutrition. Many organizations, including the UN, have denounced this fighting due to the targeted violence towards women and children.

Due to this situation, UNICEF estimated that there are 4 million orphans in DRC. Problems that affect children heavily include malnutrition, a lack of clean water, and declining primary school enrollment rates. Caring for and providing a good education to orphans and disadvantaged children is the key method to combating poverty, disease, malnutrition, and poor social status of women.

21 January 2014 - Haiti school opens!

On January 21, 2014, our Restore a Child Academy elementary school opened its doors to 85 children grades K-3. Each year we plan to add a new grade to the school.  

We want to give them values to impact their lives.  Yes, it is late in the school year, but these children have no where to go to school and no money to pay tuition.  

We will prepare them for this coming school year that starts September 2014. To save money, Engineer, Joseph Valcin used the wood that was used to pour the cement roof to make tables and chairs for the first two grades.  We are ordering desks for the rest of the children. 

The photo of the school was taken January 4, 2014.  Since then the windows and doors have been ordered and we are asking you to kindly consider helping us with the cost .  

We need $10,000 before the end of February

I am leaving to Haiti on February 7 to check on the children and the school and also to dedicate the school. 

We are excited that the North American Division Youth and Young Adults Department has a team of volunteers going on a mission trip February 13-19 and then going directly to report at NAD Young Adult Prayer Convention in Miami on February 19.  

With this group the Columbia Union is sending a reporter to cover the trip. Two medical doctors, a nurse, a musician and a pastor.will join the group.

Valentine's Day - Give a gift that lasts

Valentine is a time when people think of those they love and think of ways to make them happy. Roses and chocolates are expressions of love, but roses fade and chocolates are eaten. Perhaps this year you can give a more meaningful gift for the one you love. A gift that transforms and changes lives. A gift that saves from hunger and malnutrition.

Imagine 6.9 million children die every year from hunger.

I appeal to you to think differently this Valentine's day and impact the life of even ONE child.

The photos at the top right were taken in December 2013 when a small group of our volunteers from Hungary went to Goma Refugee Camp, in the war-torn country of Congo. The war in Congo has been raging for over 17 years and hundreds of thousands of children have been orphaned. The sight of a hungry child, a child without arms or legs is so familiar.

This Valentine’s Day let’s think beyond red roses and chocolates and give hope to ONE child in Congo, Haiti, Bolivia, Indonesia, Chad, Tanzania, Kenya or South Sudan.

Please take a moment to check the enclosed new 15 Year Anniversary Gift Catalog and select a gift that lasts, a gift that changes lives and gives hope and a future. It is only through your generous and continued support that we are able to continue our work and grow to help thousands more children around the world.

The children say: 

“Thank You for caring for me this Valentines Day and for putting a smile on my face.”
