Children of the Nations focuses on ministering to orphaned and destitute children, raising them to transform nations.
The Village Partnership Program was designed to specifically meet the needs of children (some who are orphans, some not) living with destitute families or caregivers who are unable to properly provide for them.
TheVillage Partnership Program is unique in that it is not a relief or “handout” program, but rather a “hand up.” This community-based ministry provides opportunities for partnership, empowering local people with the resources and training to raise and provide for their own children and better their communities.
