Program accomplishments

The Life Saving Program (LSP) provides basic needs for survival in the form of soy-fortified rice and the development of local leaders. The Life Transforming Program (LTP) provides beyond basic needs to eliminate malnutrition and establish a platform of health in the community that will ultimately break cycles of poverty. ORPHANetworks Health and Nutrition program has aligned goals and actions to six global goals that the World Health Organization has defined as priorities (stunting, anemia, low birth weight, childhood overweight, breastfeeding, and wasting). Our partners are developed through quarterly leadership development trainings so they can execute the holistic programs that are designed to break cycles of poverty while empowering them to share Jesus Christ. This program also includes leadership development initiatives.Expenses $1,798,420 · grants $1,022,030
- Students from the orphanages that we previously had relationships with have now all moved into our transition program. We committed to support these adolescents in the pursuit of their dreams of graduating from high school, becoming independent and ultimately breaking cycles of poverty. We are continuing to support these students through their college years with scholarship assistance with transportation and materials and beyond by providing funds for work internships.Expenses $79,551 · grants $51,043
- Training for a Better Future includes Job Training and the Education Program. The Job Training program empowers young adults from our partner LTPs to learn a trade and gain employment. We are equipping young adults to compete for and win the in-demand job markets in welding, construction, garment manufacturing and tourism. Our vocational job training programs create an opportunity to land jobs that provide steady income and improve the quality of life for an entire family to break the cycle of poverty once and for all.
