Orphanages

LIGHT's orphanage outreach began in 2003, and has taken on many different forms over the years, including medical examinations, financial support for critical surgeries, and nutrition supplementation. More than 50 orphans have been fostered through LIGHT's community foster care program, with 35 children adopted into overseas and domestic families. While current policies do not permit community-based foster care, LIGHT continues to support a nutrition program in an outlying orphanage, as well as support adopted children with ongoing medical needs that live locally.
