Lifesong For Orphans

I want to provide more information about Lifesong For Orphans, so that people who are interested in giving will understand what organization they are giving to.

Currently, Lifesong is working with children in orphanages in India, Zambia, and Ukraine. They have programs in which churches can sign up to adopt an orphanage and provide for children living there. Churches can also start an adoption fund with their help. Lifesong has built transition homes in Ukraine. So that children, who age out of the orphanage at 16 years old, have somewhere safe to go. Lifesong also provides 'A Constant Christian Presence' in these homes.

They provide adoption grants and loans to adopting parents. At least a couple of people, who's blogs I read have received matching grants from Lifesong. This is a program, in which, they match dollar for dollar what you raise. You can visit their website for more information. I have created a link to their site on this page on the right hand side. Click on the name and it will take you there.

Lifesong is endorsed by Family Life President, Dennis Rainey. Lifesong is a member of the Christian Alliance for Orphans and the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability. A 100 percent of donations to Lifesong goes directly to the children.

Lifesong's Pledge:

Our Children will have:

No want for food, clothing , medical care, shelter

Fundamental Christian Training and discipleship

Quality Education

Continued Love and support as they transition into adult living


Their Method:

Seek to mobilize the churh, His body, where each member can provide a unique and special service: Some to adopt, Some to care, and Some to give.

2 Corinthians 8: 13-14

For this is not for the ease of others and for your affliction, but by way of equality- at this present time your abundance is being a supply for their need, so that their abundance also may become a supply for your need, that there may be equality.
