WAYS TO HELP

Child labor, human trafficking, gang and drug violence, teen pregnancy and extreme poverty are very real realities for vulnerable children. They often lack an imagination for anything better than the lives they’ve seen their parents live.

Health Changes Everything

Your gift provides essential healthcare, nutrition, and preventative care that protect children from illness, support their growth, and fill them with hope for a brighter tomorrow.

back to school

We are joining forces with Unity 4 Orphans, a fellow San Diego-based nonprofit that shares our heart for strengthening communities in Mexico and Central America by serving vulnerable children and families with compassion, dignity, and hope.

U4O PROGRAMS

Education 4 Change

We partners with local teachers to deliver ESL learning that equip students for long-term success. We also support program partners as they serve as tutors to help children achieve academic excellence.

Healing 4 Change

The children we work with have often experienced trauma such as abandonment, poverty, food scarcity, abuse, and violence. We believe that they must be supported emotionally to move forward into brighter futures.

Play 4 Change

Our local partners organize and facilitate weekly time for vulnerable children to participate in recreational activities, including soccer, learning to play an instrument, gym time, and taekwondo.

Nutrition 4 Change

Ensuring proper nutrition and access to clean drinking water is a foundational way to support the health of vulnerable children and encourage progress towards independence in the future.

Shelter 4 Change

A safe and stable home is a cornerstone of all basic needs, along with a school building where they can learn.
