Families Outreach recognizes the presence of a worldwide orphan crisis. Across the globe, the United Nations estimates that there are between 147 and 163 million orphans. We are determined as an organization to direct all of our charitable energy toward combatting this epidemic.

To make a difference in the lives of orphans, Families Outreach focuses on the following areas:

- Adoption Aid: Adoption can be very intimidating for a family. The cost alone prohibits many couples from pursuing adoption and providing a loving home for a child. Families Outreach will provide grants to couples who need financial help in meeting the high costs of adoption.

– Orphan Care: Sadly, there are far more orphans than there are adopting families. Families Outreach will seek to actively support orphan care providers and projects that will meet the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of these children who find themselves without a family.

– Awareness: Families Outreach seeks to raise awareness of the needs of orphans. We hope more families will be encouraged to pursue adoption as they learn of the need. We also want to engage more people in the orphan care movement by providing an outlet to these children in need.
