As a small organization, we are challenged with ensuring that each donation makes a substantial impact on the lives of the children we help. Our responsibility is to ensure that your donations have a maximum impact and that we partner to identify areas where we can truly make a difference.
We continue to be inspired by individuals who selflessly dedicate their lives to the care of infants and children in countries that struggle with tremendous
poverty. Our programs and partnerships continue to grow to most effectively meet our mission. 100% of your donations go to help these children.
In January 2011 the CRF team made a visit to several of the organizations we support in the Philippines. Poverty continues to be appalling with slums sometimes hidden behind rows of Hollywood type facades built to resemble colorful stucco homes. Behind the fake walls are homes fashioned out of boxes, corrogated aluminium sheeting, discarded plywood, and bedsheets hung as makeshift doors and windows. Their shanties perched atop rivers of open sewage are the only home many of them know. The stories of the abandoned babies found crying on smoldering garbage, children trafficked, beaten and raped or sold by their parents as prostitutes continue. Our mission continues to support the real heroes who spend their lives defending those who have no voice. We are proof that through your help, a small organization can make a big difference.
Although we support a broad range of charitable efforts, our focus is on girls who have faced the most difficult of circumstances – girls who are victims of abuse, neglect, abandonment or trafficking – to provide them with exceptional opportunities for a bright future.
Our approach is twofold, first to ensure that these girls are cared for during their formative years through our Care packages and, secondly, to provide these girls, often dealing with issues of abandonment and neglect, the opportunity to be trained in professional careers. Empowering them and giving them the best chance for a better life.
We are privileged to partner with those who do so much for others.
For those of you who support us, on behalf of the children, Thank you! For those who want to make a difference, we welcome your assistance.
Please consider us in your next United Way giving campaign. You can also make donations directly on this website or through Universal Giving atwww.Universalgiving.org where you will find donations starting from only $10 for a bag of rice. We invite you to join us, one small step at a time…
