Help me transform the lives of disadvantaged orphan children, offering them a better future in a secure family setting (building an orphanage).


In April, I was given the opportunity to visit Gambia with Penny Appeal USA and see the outstanding progress your donations have made and what future donation will further fund. With your help, we will fund OrphanKinds 'build a village' program.

 

WHAT'S THE PLAN? 

We’re building communities centered around nurturing orphaned children.

Each of the homes in our OrphanKind village houses 10 orphan children and together with a trained foster mother, they form a family. The community is designed to provide for the complete nurturing of each child through education, access to quality healthcare, and the love of a foster mother to tend to their emotional and psychological needs.

 

I got to visit a couple of the centers established already, as well as one of the village communities being made. It was amazing how far they've gotten with donations and how many people they are directly helping! While I was there, I had the pleasure of meeting the children we are helping and they are thriving in the nurturing environment made by the organization. It's important to realize that this program is made to not just feed these children, but give them the opportunity to grow, learn, and become successful adults.

What does the OprhanKind Village include?

One complete home costs $50,000 USD . I'm joining forces with Penny Appeal USA to help fund the building of one home.


Each home includes:

  •  Houses 10 orphans
  •  Living room
  •  Dining room
  •  Kitchen
  •  Air conditioning
  •  4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms

OrphanKind Village:

  •  Health clinic
  •  Administrative building
  •  Play ground
  •  Mosque
  •  Education center
  •  Beautiful garden


Please help us construct and maintain orphan villages in Gambia!

Sahl ibn Sa’d reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The one who cares for an orphan and myself will be together in Paradise like this,” and he held his two fingers together to illustrate.
