Hope Village

It was a daring plan. Our founders saw the devastation wreaked by a tsunami and earthquakes and were heartbroken to discover children that had lost everything. Could it be possible that they could experience family again? They believed there was hope. We started a family - rescuing orphans and abandoned children in 2007. Since then we have grown to have 63 children and teenagers in our care and are supporting the surrounding villages with projects like clean water systems and building a primary and junior high school to provide quality education where there is none. Join us in changing lives and impacting generations.

Who we are

Hope Village is not an orphanage. Once a child arrives they are no longer abandoned or an orphan. They are welcomed by brothers, sisters, carers and house parents into a loving, stable family. We work everyday to provide a home environment that promotes health for the whole child - physically, emotionally, spiritually - as well as providing medical care and quality education.
