World Orphan Connection
Our Purpose:
World Orphan Connection (WOC) intends on serving the world’s orphans, recently
estimated at 143,000,000 million and growing, “one idea at a time.” What does
this mean and how does this work?
In
a nutshell, WOC has a “three-pronged approach.” First, we seek to raise money
and distribute the funds to organizations around the world that have a proven
track record of helping orphans. We will give money for specific projects that
serve orphans. We will consider any project that enriches the lives of the
children served socially, educationally, culturally, professionally,
emotionally, mentally or physically so long as the project is not solely
designed to meet basic needs or is only spiritual in nature. We also wish to
fund organizations that have a long term plan for sustainability so that we are
encouraging organizations to move beyond donor dependency.
The
second prong is what we at WOC refer to as the “international hub,” which is
our website that allows organizations around the world to be linked together so
that they may share ideas and information, and potentially resources. In
addition, this website will allow WOC donors to know with absolute confidence
that their money and time is being put to good use and is actually making a
difference for orphans. Lastly, WOC seeks to link volunteers with organizations
around the world that can use their skills.
Our Goal:
To reach orphans in every country by 2026. We believe this will
be possible with a system of specialists working with non-profits who
are reaching orphans in multiple countries in various regions of the
world.
Our Vision:
To see a world where all children are
nutured, loved, inspired, and cherished. We want to see a world
where all children’s basic physical needs are met and that they are
provided with resources for education from the early stages of their
lives. We want to permanently break down barriers for those left
orphaned regardless of social, political, or economic conditions.
