These child survivors face extreme poverty, armed conflict, and natural disasters everyday in one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world. The Philippines is located on the tectonic plates and is in constant danger of typhoons, flooding, landslides, earthquakes, volcanoes, and droughts.
These orphaned or abandoned children are in survival mode. Their days are spent finding food and water, and then if they find some, they are in fear of having it stolen from them. Without our help they have no hope of an education.
We know these children need inner healing and to know their lives matter to us and to God! They have a purpose! Our programs are Christ centered and church driven! We connect the children to people who can holistically and specifically help with their individual needs. And we give each child nourishing food, a bed, medical care and education.
Our vision is to provide a sense of security and
belonging to abandoned, neglected and orphaned children in the Philippines. We are counting on people just like you to help us by giving.
Our Beverly Best Medical Clinic built for the community is completed. What we need are people to partner with us to help us complete the children's home.
Hope Village will be joining with other charities around the world observing World Water Day on March 22. When it comes to critical needs, water has to be right up there with air.
In our “modern” world it’s hard to believe something as essential as water is still such a daily struggle for so many.
A recent study found that 52% of Filipino people have no access to safe drinking water. This is over 50,000,000 people. Every year millions of people die from diseases that are associated with the lack of safe water, lack of sanitization, and hygiene. Most of these deaths are children.
The Philippines ranks ninth in the world for stunted growth rates in children. That means 1 in 3 children is stunted. Malnutrition and hunger for long periods of time in the first 1,000 days of life stunts their growth. We provide nourishing food for these children.
Many of these children do not have money for even basic needs. They are forced to spend most of their time looking through mountains of garbage for food water and clothing. Children who do go to school, often walk long distances through dangerous terrain, and may swim through treacherous rivers to get there. We provide the children with school supplies, food, clothing and help them get safely to school.
The Philippines is located on the Pacific Ring of Fire. At least 60% of the land area is subject to natural disasters. Making it one of the most disaster prone areas in the world. This area is subject to typhoons, flooding, earthquakes, landslides, volcanos and drought. We work together with local partners to send aid into these regions during these times.
Our most urgent need is to complete our facilities so we can begin taking in children. This need is absolutely critical. You can help us by making a contribution. We need to complete this project as soon as possible. Become a Keeper of Hope today.
We are working with partners now to begin planning of our first Medical Missions trip. We have also received a large donation of supplies and are working to get these shipped to the Beverly Best Clinic. If you would like to get involved with one of the Medical Missions trips either through volunteering or through helping with shipping costs, please reach out via email so we can get you connected.
At this time we are not able to help with internships. However, once our children's home is fully operational, this is a program we would love to pursue. Stay tuned for additional information!
While we are in the construction phase, this is not something we can safely accommodate outside of special circumstances. Once our facility is fully operational, we will have a fairly rigorous screening process to ensure the safety of the children and the staff on site. We appreciate your patience and understanding on this matter. Feel free to reach out via phone or email for additional information.
