Through our network of local pastors and community leaders, we are able to identify “at risk” children who would benefit most as a member of the Living Hope family.
Living Hope prioritizes “double orphans” – those children that have lost both parents. These children are often in the custody of extended family who lack the emotional and financial resources to care for them. In the worst cases, these children are exploited. Under extenuating circumstances, Living Hope does care for “single orphans” who have a parent living who is unable or unwilling to care for the child.

This God-given desire was a result of knowing Christ’s love and passion for all children, especially those without parents (James 1:27). In time, the need for more focused and dedicated leadership of the orphanage led to the creation of Living Hope International in August 2006…

Living Hope and Beyond

Our campus is home to our children, coffee farm, performing arts center, athletic facilities and the future home to our church resource center, medical clinic, school and vocational training center. Living Hope not only cares for our children, we also care for our neighbors. It is a home for hope, Living Hope.
