There are approximately 147 MILLION orphans around the world.
147,000,000 sweet. beautiful. innocent. children of God.
all with names.... and faces
children who have a heart and need to be loved, protected, and cared for.
They deserve a chance.
They are counting on you and me to give them hope, to be their voice, and to speak up for them.
"speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves." (proverbs 31.8)
We also need to ACT
"once our eyes are opened, we can't pretend we don't know what to do. God, Who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls, knows that we know and holds us responsible to ACT." (prov. 24.12)
God calls us to act.
He calls us to "look after the poor and ORPHANS in their distress"
He calls us to be EFFECTIVE and make a CHANGE
We need to "be the CHANGE we wish to see in the world." (Ghandi)
There are 147,000,000 vulnerable, hopeful orphans.
Can you change the life of just ONE?
Here at Braids of Hope our goal is not only to sell headbands, that is just a very small part of our mission. We are here to spread the word about the MAJOR need for orphans everywhere. Our goal is to change the life of an orphan... one headband at a time.
By purchasing a headband from Braids of Hope, you are supporting the orphans' cause and helping people everywhere spread the word about the 147 million orphans.
We can't do this on our own. 147 million orphans is not a small number. We need everyone to come together and be a group of people willing to STAND UP and say "I will, I will do all I can to make a change in the increasing number of vulnerable children everywhere."
CHARITY OF CHOICE
Our current Charity of Choice is Room for One More. Room for One More is an independent non-profit organization creating lasting change in the lives of orphans around the world. Through adoption awareness and financial support, "Room for One More" unites orphaned children with loving families and also supports the orphans left behind with food, shelter, education and medical care. Visit Room for One More at roomforonemorechild.org.
We give 100% of the proceeds from our braided headbands to Room for One More.
"WE can do ALL THINGS through Christ Who gives us strength." (Philippians 4:13)
