New Orphanages since January 2008.
1) HANDS OF HOPE ORPHANAGE started in Zambia with 51 children who were literally starving in the villages due to lack of food to beg for as the result of the floods. These children have been rescued by the local Church and put into foster homes and educated by the Church. These orphanages are situated 2 hours drive South of Lusaka.
Due to rapid growth we are now feeding 1,700 orphans who have joined this orphanage. More orphans also want to join the orphanage that present us with a big challenge.
The orphanage is divided into 4 villages. The second orphanage first met under two trees daily for food and school, but now have a completed school and church which was funded by an elderly lady in Scotland. 'Ahava Love Orphanage charity' has now been established in Canterbury and help us where they can.
Our supporters in New Zealand have also dug wells in each village and David is at present establishing organic gardens for all 4 orphanages. The local chief has also given land to help get them towards being self sufficient. We thank all these supporters for the wonderful job they have done.
We are looking for a bigger charity or business or individual who would like to adopt one of these orpanages. Please contact us if you would like to be involved.

2) We also Support 2 Orphanages in Pakistan of total 156 orphans including disabled children. We are also looking for someone to take over one or both of these smaller orphanages.
3) FAITH PRIMARY SCHOOL opened in India in January 08 to bring back the orphans who were put onto the streets to beg, as a result of no money to buy food for them. We did this by turning their quality building into a primary school and the locals pay for education. This enables the orphans to be fed and educated while put into foster homes with church families. The scheme is working well and already they have 57 paying pupils and over a 100 orphans rescued from the streets who now enjoy being part of a family home. We thank the Lord for giving us his wonderful plans. The Lord miraculously provided Peter and Donna Foulds in 2009 who have bought the orphanage for the orphans and are providing for their needs. We thank Donna and Peter for all they are doing.
4) Bala Orphanage in Kenya opened in 2001. In January 2005 we handed the orphane over to Dorian and Maur Ferdenando in Cincester who have done un excellent work and now have over 500 orphans.
