Here’s the lorry we exported a couple of years ago. It’s regularly on its way to Lubumbashi from the Zambian border with a load of cargo. This business generates a good income.
We would LOVE to send another lorry filled with essential supplies in the near future. There is so much we can do to help these lovely people!

In addition to receiving financial support through Operation Orphan, the team at Hebron Home works hard to generate sustainable sources of income and food from within the country.
Donald began cultivating the 40-acre farm four months ago and they have already harvested a variety of produce.

*HELP NEEDED this week*
Every year our Moldova distribution takes place in new villages around the country as well as through social services & support groups.
This year we packed more coats than ever before but we don’t have quite enough to ensure every child has a coat. Those we need are for older children and teens (mostly teens) and mainly BOYS coats.
... If you live local to NOTTINGHAM and have a teen winter coat you could donate this week, it would be a huge help.
We still need coats for;
Boys age 11 - 15+ Girls age 14, 15 and 15+
Thanks in advance 👍

Keep a Child is a great way to explain to our donors exactly where their money is making an impact. Each of our projects falls under at least one of our Keep a Child categories, some encompass more than one and others all four. Here's a brief overview of what Keep a Child Healthy is all about... #keepachildhealthy #operationorphan #keepachild

wonderful job being done by caring folks totally voluntary too

Wonderful charity focusing on the most vulnerable people in the world-great work

I've been involved in this charity for some time now. And I have seen the impact it has on children in the care system in the UK.

Fantastic caring charity, would love to help out more, could listen to the staff all day talk about their jobs and how they help so many people, children, families xx

Fab charity that gets to the heart of the needs of children.

Amazing people loved volunteering with you and will do what I can xxx

Amazing charity doing incredible things!

Absolutely outstanding work you do, would love to get involved in your events! So excited for your future. God has some awesome stuff in place for you guys! Big love.

Absolutely amazing team, much love for you all! Best of luck with all your events <3

A fantastic charity, doing so much good work where it's really needed. We are helping to collect warm clothing to send later in the year. So pleased to be able to help in a small way.

100% of donations going to help orphans and vulnerable children - that's got to be outstanding ;-)

We are sponsoring a family ourselves in Sierra Leone, and have been doing so for around 20 years following our visit to SL, however having met Brad, Cyrilyn and family, and seeing the excellent work they do it has further expanded our focus for SL.
