                                                  Did you know?

Each year, millions of children are being orphaned or abandoned in Africa as a result of the AIDS pandemic.

Zambia has an estimated 1 million orphans out of a total national population of 10 million. Many of these children have no one to turn to for help.

Desperation, human misery, and hopelessness are increasing, with no end in sight.

The productive, working-age generation of adults is rapidly disappearing, resulting in poverty and famine

                                                   How you help

You, your prayer group, your church, your business or place of employment can:

Sponsor a child

Sponsor a cottage of 8-10 children

Sponsor a Children's Village, with the name of a loved one or the name of your business

Sponsor a fund-raising event to help rescue the children

Start an orphans care ministry in your church

Work with us to raise awareness of the enormous need to care for orphans, and of God's heart for the fatherless

You can volunteer to visit and help at the children's villages. Mission trips are needed to do construction, teach the children, provide vocational training, and hold babies

Creative things people are doing to help:

Katlyn, a high school senior collects used prom dresses, sells them, and gives the proceeds to support one of our children's homes

Network Funding, a mortgage lender, has helped sponsor the construction of a children's village.

Ken, a recently retired engineer who constructed manufacturing plants around the world, is overseeing the construction of our children's villages in Zambia.

"God's Gals", a women's Bible study and prayer group, sponsors a child.

A large School District supported a student campaign, "What a Dime Can Do", to collect loose change, raising thousands of dollars for the care of African orphans.

Holmes Energy sponsored a booth to promote awareness of the orphan crisis at a county-wide home and garden show.

A church middle school church youth group is fundraising to install wells for one of our children's villages.

Over 60 members of Mt. Zion Church built an addition onto a church member's house. The family then gave the $20,000 budgeted for labor costs, to build our children's villages in Namibia.

A physician and his wife contribute the immunizations needed for volunteers going to help in Africa.

A public relations professional contributes her creative talents to the development of promotional materials.

Young retirees have formed a committee to develop strategies to get county churches to collaborate on sponsoring children's villages.
