Many of our world's children are orphaned and have no hope for adoption or to be
reunited with a family. This is why we created An Orphan's Ticket Home campaign.
Our desire is to see more orphans have the chance to come home to their forever
families.
Your participation with us in this campaign will determine whether many of these
children ever get "that ticket home."
The goal of this campaign is to raise $1,000,000 in order to make it possible for
orphaned children to be adopted. For some, these funds will secure birth certificates
and documents to give them a legal identity, which is necessary in order to be eligible
for adoption. Other children will be able to move from orphanages to safe, clean
transitional homes. A ticket home will make other children's dreams come true when
they are brought into loving, permanent homes.
Our end goal of $1,000,000 will give 5,100 children the opportunity for a loving
home. Your personal ticket purchase will allow children "admission" to a system
that will move them toward this permanent home. There are five ways to give an orphan
a home.
Ethiopia Transitional Services
Your monetary gift to this Orphan's Ticket Home initiative will supply diapers,
formulas, bottled water, blankets and bedding, medical expenses, and clothes for
the babies and children at our Ethiopia Transitional Home. Inflation has hit Ethiopia
and there is a $9.25 exchange rate, so it's $9.00 just for a bottle of formula and
$8.00 for 20 diapers!
