Care for an Orphan

A Family For Every Child

For more than 50 years, Wide Horizons has worked with orphaned children worldwide. During this time, we have observed that a child is most at risk of becoming an orphan when a perfect storm of crises takes hold of their family.

Given this truth, we decided to see what would happen if we intervened with help BEFORE these crises took hold. We focused relentlessly on keeping the most at-risk families intact — and made a startling discovery.

By providing integrated services to preserve and strengthen their family before it collapses, we can prevent a child from becoming an orphan.

The donations provided are fundamental for covering the Home’s operational expenses, as they are used to pay rent, salaries of staff and professionals, and food for the children currently living at the Home as well as other significant expenses without which we would not be able to operate. It is because of this, that without your support, we could not exist or provide the support and care that we currently provide to the children. —Dinora Orphanage Director, Guatemala
