Special Note on Haiti:
Due to the catastrophic event that occurred in Haiti we have directed our focus to helping the orphans of that country. Immediately after the devastation our team went to Haiti to deliver immediate assistance such as medical supplies, food, clothing and (when the children were prepared for it) school supplies.
We are still working with The World Food Programme (WFP) delivering food to orphanages. However, since the emergency situation is, for the most part, under control our attention is freed up enough now to focus on long-term plans for the children. Our motto comes from the Chinese Proverb: “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”
Our current project in Haiti will teach the children skills in sustainable agriculture, creative arts, sewing, jewelry making as well as an overall comprehensive education. In this way the children will have life skills that will enable them to make an income for themselves and their families when they reach adulthood.
We will be engaging the community in constructing our new center with natural building techniques. We will help to enable the community to have more stability using this approach.
Our team has been assessing the cultural norms in construction, education and agriculture. By working with the local community we will build our model center as well as help the orphans by teaching them these skills. In this way these children can be given the opportunity for growth and development that every child deserves. The model we are creating is worthy of duplication. Localized stability is not just an appropriate response to disaster relief; it is a change that will make a positive impact anywhere.
Please go to our DONATE page so we can all continue to aid these people.

Help for Orphans International is a non-profit organization which provides superior education facilities and materials for orphans around the world.
Our overall purpose is to elevate the well-being of orphans and empower them to succeed in whatever endeavor they choose. We provide an exceptional learning environment, along with educational tools that bring out the natural ability in our students, as well as give a firm grounding in the basics necessary for self-sufficiency. We are helping orphaned children help themselves. We firmly believe education represents a powerful tool for generating jobs, improving incomes, and expanding the opportunities available to these orphans. Our focus is on helping to create self-sufficiency among orphans by supplying the orphaned children with a basic education as well as teaching sustainable agriculture.
By providing our curriculum to already established schools as well as creating new schools for orphans in areas that have few educational resources, Help for Orphans International improves the lives of as many orphans as we can support and reach. In addition to the state-of-the-art phonics, reading, life and study skills coures that are easy to teach and self-paced, we also train teachers to create a specific curriculum to provide their students with skills that are relevant to their community.
In many of the orphanages we reach out, certain basic needs have to be met before we can begin the educational process. Help for Orphans provides food, clean water, vaccinations, clothing and other needed supplies in order to establish an effective learning environment.
Having already begun building schools and assisting orphanages in India, South America, Uganda and Kenya, Help for Orphans International intends to expand as rapidly as possible to meet the needs of as many orphans as we can reach. The rapidly increasing numbers of orphans, particularly in Africa and other countries hit hard by recent natural disasters, create a tremendous need for assistance. Please help us by making a donation. We will utilize it effectively in order to create a sustainable solution for these children.
