This project is set up to support the day to day care of the children of the Good Shepherd Agricultural Mission in India. In the heart of every child is a hunger for home. Not just for food and a place to sleep, but for safety and community. Most importantly: for love. The mission is more than a home for unwanted Indian orphans. It is a family. It is a nearly self-sustaining organization; a working farm, a vibrant school and all this while receiving no government assistance of any kind.

Challenge

The GSAM has around 65 children in its care. These kids need the obvious things like food, clothing, education, buildings to live in, power bills paid... you know, all the normal stuff orphanage need money for. More than that though, we believe a childhood should be made up of good memories, of fun times, activities, adventure! Our project is set up in the hopes of helping to create amazing childhoods for these kids. They might have had a rough start but life can get better from here on in!

Long-Term Impact

Together we can change the lives of these kids. We can send them forward into the world with a bright outlook on life, a spirit of adventure, a passion for compassion and a desire to serve others less fortunate. We can give them a whole new future.
