Global Orphan Foundation

Global Orphan Foundation exists to advocate on behalf of orphaned and vulnerable children worldwide and respond with action. We have witnessed firsthand the struggle to meet the basic needs of orphaned children in third-world and developing countries and are committed to easing that burden. We believe that all children deserve proper nutrition, access to healthcare, and educational opportunities. Our programs address some of the world's most pressing issues. Each one is designed to be transferable to any community, anywhere in the world. By investing in today's youth, and in the world's most vulnerable populations, we're working for a brighter tomorrow for all. Our cornerstone project is Bolingo Village!

Bolingo Village

Bolingo Village is more than just a safe place to sleep. It is a community rooted in love, stability, and transformation for orphaned and vulnerable children in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

At Bolingo, each family-style home is led by a foster mom, a widowed woman trained and licensed to provide the nurturing care and structure these children need to thrive. Up to eight children live together in each home, forming deep sibling bonds and receiving daily support through nutritious meals, education, medical care, trauma-informed counseling, and spiritual development.
