How can I be sure that my gift is actually benefiting my child?

Orphan’s Tear uses none of the contributions received for fund raising or administrative purposes. 100% of everything we receive from you directly benefits orphans. General gifts to our parent ministry, Heaven's Family, provide the administrative costs of Orphan's Tear.

Although you are sponsoring one child that you “adopt,” your monthly gift actually benefits an entire orphanage, so that in each orphanage, sponsored children are not given preferential treatment over unsponsored children. Our prayerful goal is to find sponsors for every child at every orphanage that we assist (and we hope that you might even help us find sponsors by sharing about your child with others). In any case, your monthly gift directly benefits your child and other children in the same orphanage.

Orphan’s Tear works with orphanages that we have personally visited and with orphanage directors whom we personally know. Every orphanage we assist is required to have a board of trustees consisting of respected Christian leaders within the community who are not the director’s family members or orphanage employees.

Orphan’s Tear USA is also overseen by a similar board of directors. Annual financial statements are available upon request. We are committed to financial integrity.
