Serving Orphans Worldwide works with Christian children’s homes and orphan care projects in 32 countries. We come alongside these homes to provide monthly support, invest in sustainability ventures, capital needs, and grant scholarships for many of the children when they age out of care. Our model is unique in that 100% of everything you give goes directly to orphan care. Thanks to a group of special sponsors, all of the administrative costs for SOW are completely covered.
We currently support five partner homes in Ukraine, and all five of the homes have had to evacuate the staff and children in recent days. Our organization has created a special Ukrainian Crisis fund to provide ongoing and tangible relief efforts to our partners in the field and the children they serve. Our team has been working hard to build a coalition on the ground in Ukraine, Poland, and Germany to move supplies, evacuate women and children, and ensure funds are received directly by our Ukrainian partners on the ground. These funds will be needed in the months ahead and through next year as we repair or possibly resettle and rebuild some of our children’s homes. These recovery efforts will take a lot of resources in the weeks, months, and years ahead. Follow our Social Media and join our email list for more information as it becomes available. Thank you for standing with our Ukrainian partners at this time!
Watch Pastor Gennadiy’s Story:
Gennadiy Mokhnenko is the founder of Pilgrim Republic children’s home and rehab center in Mariupol, Ukraine. After evacuating the women, children, and staff to a safe location, he is currently back near his hometown of Mariupol serving his local community and providing relief. All five of our partner homes work hard to provide children in their care with a safe home, healthcare, an education, and adult mentors who can share the Love of Christ. All of our Ukrainian homes also participate in adoption and family reunification programs.
