We just received our 20-foot container of black beans for food distributions. We really want to thank our wonderful partners who help sponsor food! Beans are more expensive than rice and so the poor Haitians rarely get beans, a good source of protein. We have white premium rice and rice[…]

When Joseph and Sarah were born, their mother and father lived far in the mountains. Their mother died when they were about two years old. Both had severe kwashiorkor malnutrition and were very sad. We took Joseph and Sarah into our orphanage. Joseph likes to play soccer and work! He[…]
We are in the Dominican Republic with Jesse Ostrander and his wife, Kim, and Michelene, who grew up in our Children’s Home.

Michelene was about five years old when her mother began working for us. They[…]
