WHAT WE DO
With your help
We are a charity with a mission to help the children in the "Santa Maria de la Esperanza" orphanage, located in the town of Olon, Ecuador. With help and dedication from friends, family and people like you, we strive to improve the lives of each and every child in the orphanage. Contact us to see what you can do to bring about positive change.
HOW WE HELP
It Starts With the Will to Make a Difference
With the support of our community, we make trips to the orphanage to hand deliver all of the generous donations we receive. During the holidays, we put together a Christmas party for everyone at the orphanage to enjoy! And trust us, it is worth it. Don't believe us? Check out our gallery and see those amazing smiles on their faces for yourself.
Monetary donations are used to purchase food or items that the orphanage has identified as urgent necessity. They are also used to help fund the children's ongoing education.
EDUCATION
We collect and purchase a variety of school supplies for the children. We also try to find different resources and tools to make learning fun for them. This can be through coloring books, puzzles, form boards, etc. The children require $22 a month (each) to be able to attend their local school. This covers all educational materials, curriculum, uniform and their lunch. Helping sponsor a child's education is a gift that keeps on giving!
