About

There are an estimated 4,414,000 orphans in Ethiopia. Many of these children reside on the dangerous streets of Addis Ababa begging, stealing, fighting, or even prostituting in order to survive. Questionable deformities and scars mark some of these little ones for life, begging the question: how did such atrocities occur? These are the faces of Ethiopia’s future, a future that will remain bleak unless something is done to significantly change the circumstances of Ethiopia’s children at risk.

We at The Forsaken Children believe that hope is available to Ethiopia’s children at risk through hearing and understanding the Gospel of Jesus Christ, leaving the streets, and becoming part of a family.

We facilitate the above significant steps by partnering with Christ-centered Ethiopian organizations who share these core beliefs. The Forsaken Children offers its partner organizations:

  • Financial support
  • Guidance on how to develop long-term sustainable financial support from within Ethiopia
  • Direction in developing best practices and procedures for working with children at risk
  • The Forsaken Children
