Our vision is global. Our ministry is local.
Our mission is to change lives and transform futures, one child at a time.
Orphan Outreach is a global children’s nonprofit that builds locally led, community – based programs to meet the holistic needs of vulnerable children — empowering them to dream beyond their circumstances.
Across nine countries, Orphan Outreach equips local leaders to carry out programs tailored to each child’s unique needs. We build for the long term by empowering in – country professionals to lead locally designed programs and partner with organizations that share our commitment to meaningful, lasting impact.
What began as serving 1,000 children.
Orphan Outreach was founded in 2007 with a simple belief: every child deserves to grow up known, supported, and equipped for a healthy, independent future in the places they call home.
What began as serving 1,000 children has grown into locally led programs across nine countries — where trusted relationships, consistent care, and long-term investment help children and families thrive.
Through four pillars — education, physical wellbeing, social-emotional care, and spiritual support — we surround children with what they need today while building a foundation for what’s possible tomorrow.
We're built for lasting impact across generations.
What makes us different
We don't parachute in. We build for the long term by empowering in-country professionals to lead locally designed programs — for children, their families, and their futures.
Who leads the work
Local teachers, mentors, and caregivers are at the center of everything. We equip and resource the people who are already trusted in their communities.
The people who lead this mission.
