About The Hope Effect

UNICEF estimates there are 140 million orphans worldwide, 15 million of which have lost both parents. This number does not include the estimated 8 million invisible children living on the streets, trafficked, or forced into combat. Many people believe the orphan crisis is being adequately addressed…but the facts tell a different story. There is growing research on the damaging effects of traditional, institutional orphan care. When children do not receive adequate personal interaction within a loving environment, development is stunted and learning abilities are delayed or lost. Many orphanages are simply unaware of the damaging physical and psychological impact institutional care has on children. Many kids age out only to face a future of crime, prostitution, or trafficking. The Hope Effect is changing orphan care by providing family-based solutions. Two-parent, family-style care provides opportunities for each child to flourish and thrive. Access to health, dental, and social care is provided while each child is prepared for the future through education, responsibility, support and the structure that parents were designed to provide.
