About Pro-Grace Orphanage

Orpanage

PRO-grace is a hands-on, grassroots charity. We have helped orphans and vulnerable children since 2011. We are not a large, corporate-style organization removed from the children we support.

As you go through our website and learn more about us, you may ask why are these children smiling? Because of the kindness and generosity of folks like you. PRO-grace exists to bring hope, homes, and healing to kids and families in crisis across the world since 2011, PRO-grace remains committed to redefining foster care across our world one child at a time, with the support of the faith-based community and more.

Making an Orphanage a Home

It’s a sad fact that some children in the world will not grow up with their biological parents. The reasons for that vary. For some their parents died leaving them orphaned and alone. For others there was abuse in the home. Or maybe they were born unplanned  and their family did not want them. In each case these children eventually found themselves growing up in an orphanage. But let’s call them children’s homes, because a home is what PRO-grace works very hard to make for our sponsored children.

 

We work only with children’s homes that provide love, personal attention, education and the opportunity for a child to know the joy of childhood. The real heart of PRO-grace is the many women and men who have given their lives to care for children who may never have known a kind person before. Their love and compassion heals the emotional wounds and provides the security the children so desperately need. You can see the miracles they accomplish in the faces of the children.

Our vision

PRO-grace Orphanage  declares  to meet the emotional, intellectual, physical, social and spiritual needs of orphaned and at-risk children around the world with the Love of God.

From at-risk to thriving.

Help us in our mission to take children from at-risk to thriving

Education is the key to ending the world’s orphan crisis teach a man to fish……….

 

When we open the door to an education, we unlock the future for children. Education is the difference between failure and success. It is the difference between poverty and plenty. Without an education, jobs are hard to come by, and without a job, a mother or father cannot feed their children. When parents cannot support their families, the family unit often breaks up, and children end up on the streets or in orphanages. We start to solve the world’s orphan crisis by educating as many of the 153 million orphans in the world as we can.

Our mission

We love and serve orphaned and at-risk children. We help keep families together. We create opportunities for strong, sustainable communities.

 

Who we serve

We work with the lost, the lonely, the abandoned and the abused. We seek out those who are unloved and uncared for. Our organization was founded on the promise of taking children from dangerous, at-risk situations, and helping them thrive so that they can live full of hope and realize their God-given potential.

 

 

Where we work

We go wherever there is an opportunity to impact children in need with a life-changing message of love and hope. We are currently operating in Three countries, and always watching to see where God opens doors for love to enter a community and begin transforming children and families.

Children's Program

Our PRO-grace Children’s program helps these children find their purpose. With the help of our international partner, Pastor Bagonza Robert, we hold Sunday school classes for over 260 child refugees in the settlement. Of these, we identify the neediest orphans and pay for their schooling. Five days a week, they take Christian Religious Education (CRE), life skills, and core subjects at a school in the area. On weekends, they participate in Pastor Bagonza’s ministry. Because of our PRO-grace Children’s sponsors, we have invested in the education of 150 children. Through the Gospel, we teach them to live with purpose.

How will your sponsorship help?
Your financial commitment will keep our PRO-grace Children’s program active. Your gifts will help our students attend Christian primary and secondary schools in the area. Will you receive updates? Yes! You will receive two updates a year about the children in our program.

Because Children Belong in Families

Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to care for orphans and widows in their affliction.

JAMES 1:27

There are millions of orphans who are waiting for a loving family.
It doesn’t have to be that way.

 

Millions of orphans around the world have no family to love and support them.

THE GOAL IS SIMPLE:
To see orphans in permanent, stable, loving families in their home countries.

WHY FAMILY?
We were created to connect.Children need connection with safe, caring and consistent adults to support their physical, social, emotional, spiritual, and cognitive development.
A LOVING FAMILY:

  • Provides the consistency, and one-on-one connection children need to thrive.
  • Provides care and support at each stage of a child’s life, helping them transition to adulthood, and long after.
    Increases a child’s chance to achieve stable employment, healthy relationships, and a loving family of their own one day!

Psalm 68:6 “God sets the lonely in families.”
