Basic Life Needs

Hope's Heart desires for all orphans to have their basic needs met including food, clothing, shelter, and attention to their special and growing needs. This goal can often be met through child sponsorship in family care or healing home placements. Nutrition programs provide high quality formula to at-risk babies.
2018-2019 Children Served

Foster Care

 Affording children the opportunity to live with a family rather than being institutionalized. Everyday life lessons are learned in addition to experiencing bonding, attachment and family dynamics. 

 Healing Homes

Tender care by specially trained nannies creates an environment for medically fragile babies to grow, heal and thrive. Conditions such as prematurity, failure-to-thrive, or pre and post op care are addressed.

Nutrition

Nutrition programs provide quality fortified formula for at-risk babies whose bodies require added nutrition to thrive.  Nutritional foods strengthen little ones preparing for or recovering from surgery and children whose health is comproised because of inadequate nourishment.

 Basic Necessities

Supplying basic necessities that support daily care such as bottles, clothing, diapers, winter coats, cribs, etc.
