Give Hope 2 Kids

Introducing Our New Kids

For over a year now we’ve had 10 kids in the Give Hope 2 Kids Home.  Yesterday we added 6 more kids to the mix!  It is an honor to be charged with caring for these kids. 

So, there are now 16 kids living in our Children’s Home.  While that’s the official number for the Children’s Home though, it’s not how many kids live here.  If you include the 14 kids from our staff and volunteers, we actually have 30 kids living on this property – and 21 adults!

You may be asking why there’s such a crowd living here, so we’ll explain.  When a child comes from a background of neglect and abuse, we feel the best way to get them healthy is to surround them with healthy families that reflect God’s love.  We’ve found three great families – mom, dad, and their kids – to take in and raise our “orphans.”  Then we try to surround these families with great support, in the form of our volunteers and staff.  By God’s grace we are creating a community where kids can grow up feeling secure and loved.
We had to wait a few months for this newest batch of kids.  In June the new house-parents,  Jesús  and Rina, moved here with their family.  They're from our village and we've known their family for several years.  We've seen how well they've raised their own kids, so we are excited to watch them incorporate these six new children into their family.  We've already seen Jesús out playing soccer barefoot with the kids,  in a culture where dads don't play much, so we're encouraged about the future of this newly blended family.

There are two families represented within the group of 6 kids.  The first family includes Carlos: 9, Ingris: 8, Agustín: 4, and Jorgito: 1.

The second family includes Yensi: 9 and Dennis: 6.

We have seen so much improvement and growth in the lives of the kids here.  It is a privilege to offer them a home and hope for a better life.  We anticipate watching this new batch of children adapt and thrive. 


(Sadly, since the above was posted, these kids had to leave our Children's Home at Give Hope 2 Kids.  They are missed.)
