Feeding Programs
Feeding orphan children
Starvation among abandoned children is rampant. Our first mission is to provide nutritious meals and clean water, so children can survive, grow, and regain strength.

What we do
Every year, tens of thousands of parents abandon one or more of their children.
Why?
Imagine having nine children at home, and only enough food to keep seven of them alive. Do you risk malnutrition and disease for several of them, or do you sacrifice the two least likely to survive so the others can live?
Stranded refugees may abandon a daughter outside a camp, hoping a kind stranger will care for her. Human traffickers wait. War separates families. Death tears children from their homes. Famine and disease leave children exposed to a ruthless, uncaring world.
A mother brings a child to the nearest city, to a bus station or a crowded street corner. I will be right back, she promises, with a bottle of water. She never returns.
Imagine the dawning realization of a five-year-old child
that mama is not coming back.
Where is mama? Where am I?
What can we do?
Choose today to partner with Save Suffering Children to extend the net of acceptance and love for abandoned children.
How we help
Medical Care
Vaccination and medical care for orphans
Children living on the streets often suffer from HIV, malaria, pneumonia, and other serious illnesses. Our medical volunteers provide immediate care and help prevent avoidable loss of life.
Shelters & Orphanages
Helping children off the streets
Getting abandoned children off the streets is a priority. We support safe places to sleep at night, protecting children from traffickers, violence, and harsh weather conditions.
Education & Schools
Restoring hope through learning
From supporting schooling for former street children in Kenya to providing education to abandoned children in Mexico, we help children access learning as part of their path to stability.
