Our Mission

Our mission is to support less privileged children, widows, and families in need by:

• Providing school breakfasts so children can learn without hunger.
• Offering care and resources to those living in abject poverty.
• Empowering women, widows, and orphans with practical support and encouragement.
• Inspiring and mentoring young people to pursue education, career success, and a brighter future.

Guided by the belief that every problem has a solution, we are committed to transforming compassion into action—one child, one family, and one community at a time.

Guiding Principles

"Life is not measured by how much you own."

Luke 12:15

Author Richard Foster writes, "Owning things is an obsession in our culture. If we own it, we feel we control it; and if we can control it, we feel it will give us more pleasure. The idea is an illusion." If you want to take control of your heart, don’t let your possessions take control of you.

"One person gives freely, yet gain even more."

Proverbs 11:24

John Bunyan said, "You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you."

I am blessed with a wonderful family—married with four children and a grandchild. Years ago, I had a dream to care for women with children, orphans, widows, and the less privileged. That dream has become my passion—to turn compassion into action and provide hope and dignity to those in need.
