Who are we???

Okay, there have been quite a bit of questions floating around - curious as to who we are?  What is our goal?  Are we only focusing on the DR Congo?  How can others get involved?  Etc.

Here are some answers some of your questions...

1] We're a non-profit organization with a primary focus on orphans!  Our mission is simply to be the voice for orphans all over the world!  While at the same time, bringing glory to Christ through our missions!

2] Our goal you might ask?  Well, currently, our goal is raise the funds to support an orphanage in the DR Congo.  We are passionate about this project and we know this can help house 70 orphans.  The total cost for this project is $200, 000.  And although this seems steep... this will pay to build the orphanage, a safety wall as well as furnish & stock the orphanage with the supplies needed.  We also have several other local projects we're working on.  More information on those will be coming soon!

3] Do we only work in the DR Congo?  No.  We want to help orphans worldwide.  At this time, this is where we're beginning.  We have projects that we will soon be starting here in the U.S.  within the next week or so.

4] Many of you have asked... "How can I get involved, how can I help?"  Many ways... we're going to be hosting a number of fundraisers throughout the year where we will NEED your help, support and prayers.  We would love to have your support on these projects when the time comes.  Also, we will need the help from others by spreading the word.  Something has simple as posting our link on your website, blog, facebook or even twitter can help in a huge way.  The more people that know about us, the more awareness we can bring to the orphan crisis around the world.

So... that sums us up!  I hope this helps to clarify any questions you may have.  If not, please do not hesitate to ask!  You can email us and we will be happy to answer your questions and help find a way for you to get involved!

Thank you!

Wow! We're all blown away by the encouraging words and support you have all shown to us!  We have had  quite a few ups and downs getting to this point... but God has made it very clear to us that we're in His Will!  And for that, I am thankful!  So many of you have reached out in emails and facebook comments offering your support!  We are so grateful to each and every one of you!  We're still in the beginning stages and have a lot of fundraising ideas, and projects still in the works!  However, one way you can help is to PRAY!

Pray that we will being glory to God in ALL we do!  Pray that He will meet the needs, and raise the funds necessary to make a big difference in so many orphans lives!  Pray that our voice will be heard and that people will SEE what is going on right here in our own towns and all around the world!   We believe He has BIG things in store for Voices 4 the Voiceless!  We're so excited to be on this journey and pray that you will continue to pray for us and the adventures we're on!

There are so many needs to be met, and one of which is Project Congo.  We believe God led us to this spot, to this orphanage, and we're asking for your help!  Will you consider donating to this project?  Even if its only a couple dollars, every penny helps!  

Again, thank you so much for your willingness to help!

Many thanks,

DRUM ROLL EVERYONE......

Well.... now that the BIG news is out and you all know about Voices 4 the Voiceless... we have a project to announce that NEEDS your help!

We're calling it... Project Congo.

In Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo is an orphanage called the Mama Ekoko.  It was meant to be the home for around 70 orphans.  Unfortunately, due to a poorly built structure, the winds and rains were too strong for this structure to withstand.  A storm came through & damaged much of the facility & everyone was forced to evacuate.  Because there wasn't a perimeter wall built, thieves came in and stole everything from the facility, including the metal sheet roofing.  Due to a lack of funds, this orphanage has remained empty and the orphans were left to fend for themselves.

This is what the structure looks like now, but will need to be salvaged where possible, then rebuilt.

With your help... we hope to raise the funds needed to build a new structure that can house up to 70 orphans!  This is what the future orphanage will look like!

We pray that you will feel led to help us on this exciting new journey!  Will you partner with Voices 4 the Voiceless to give a home to these orphans who are currently left fending for themselves?

The total estimated price to fund this project [supplies & materials] is $200,000.  If you wish to see an exact breakdown of the costs for this project, please contact us via email and we will happily send that information to you.  Also, if you'd like to help by making a donation, you can mail to the address below:

Welcome!

Hi everyone!

Angela and myself want to welcome each of you to an exciting journey we've only begun!  Voices 4 the Voiceless is a Non Profit 501 C3 Organization.  Our mission is to bring awareness to the orphan crisis all over the world, and be the voices for those that don't have one.  If we don't, then who will??

Thankfully, so many are reaching out to Horn of Africa and helping in many ways, children in Ethiopia are getting forever families and awareness is being brought into countries who mistreat children with special needs.  However, the need is still great and we hope you will join with us to be a VOICE!

Our #1 priority is that Christ in honored in EVERYTHING we do!  We pray that people will not see what we're doing... instead SEE how Christ is working in and through us!  And of course, our mission is to be a VOICE.  Our 1st major project that we've committed to is what we're calling  [Project Congo].  There is a great need in this untouched country.  We call it the forgotten.  Unfortunately, there is so much that has been misunderstood about this country!  We are here to educate you, inform you and hopefully encourage you to help be a voice!

We have partnered with another organization in the Democratic Republic of Congo... and plan to reach out to a local orphanage there.  They are in need of so much... but we believe that with your help... we CAN make a difference!

We also have several others who have stepped up and are now helping us lead some other local projects!  There will be many ways you can help, and we know that WE can all make a difference!  You can "follow" our blog to keep up with all of the exciting projects that are going on!

Be sure to check out the website for more details!
