No child should call this place home

The stench. The smoke. The rotten food, illness, and disease. And always the threat of gangs and traffickers who see little children as easy prey.

It’s a heartbreaking, brutal reality for families trying to survive amidst the city garbage dump in Jinotega, Nicaragua. Families dig desperately through rubbish each day, looking for something to sell and anything their children could eat.

Bringing food to this community is truly life-changing.

You are saving children from risking their health and their safety by sifting through disease-infested garbage. Thanks to friends like you, these children don’t need to worry about where their next meal is coming from or what they will eat. Our trusted partners distribute hot and nutritious rice meals where it’s needed most, providing the essential vitamins and minerals children need to grow healthy and strong!

More than a meal, you are empowering these children by removing the need to scavenge for their families and giving them room to attend their school classes. With a full belly, a focused mind, and a heart full of hope, these children now have the energy to learn and have the opportunity to rise above their circumstances.

They can build a bright future instead of just trying to survive, and hear about the love and hope in Jesus.
