Tony and AJ


Brothers Tony and AJ are the best of friends.
They can't afford not to be since their parents died three years ago.

When their mother got sick, neighbors carried her away to a far off clinic. The boys came to visit her one morning and were told she had died. 

That's all.

Not,
"we're here to help you"
or
"come with us and we'll care for you"
or
"we'll take you to a foster home"

They were given no help at all.

Now the two boys live alone, barely surviving.

Their relatives were supportive at first, but eventually focused on their own lives.

Their uncle lives just across the road, but rarely helps them. Sometimes the boys go days without food.


Stories like these are stories we hear all the time when we talk with our orphanages. We would like to help ALL the orphans, but our donations only go so far.

You can help with a donation of on $15 each month. $15 will feed one orphan every day for a month. Won't you pledge to help just one little boy like Tony or AJ?


$15 is all it takes...the cost of eating one meal at a restaurant.
