Why we're here..

Numan Orphange is located in Asela, Ethiopia south east of Addis Ababa. It is a 3 hour drive by car; beautiful and breath taking the entire way. If you have ever been there it is a place you will never forget. Numan orphanage serves it's community by being a refuge for children in the midst of extremely difficult transition. Children ranging from 0 months to 15 years call Numan their "home", some for a very brief moment and others for an extended period of time. It is a place especially close to my heart since it was a "home" for my son during his time of need.



Numan is experiencing their own transition and moving to a new facility. Since they are expanding and will most likely be meeting the needs of more families. They find themselves in need. This Blog was established to help Numan attain these items in order to aid them in becoming more efficient in helping families and children in their community while making life more comfortable for those who live there. There are currently 27 children at Numan. We hope that through fundraising and donations we will meet the needs of the children at Numan and for those caring for them.



I would also like to clarify that this blog is not a part of Children's Hope International. They are being kind in allowing us to use them as a vessel to serve Numan.

85% BABY!!!

Can you believe that we are 85% funded!! Thanks to some very loving donations yesterday we are getting closer. I had someone donate the other day who was still in the process of putting together her dossier. It occured to me that because of her willingness to give to Numan, she could possibly be purchasing the blanket that will keep her little one warm, the crib where they might sleep at night, or the swing that will bring joy on a sunny day, she has the chance to possibly be loving on her little one until they get to meet face to face. Oh, how we never truly know the extent of our generosity.

Thanks to those who are sharing with their internet communities. It is so helpful.
Keep praying.
