Turning Interest into Action
The Mission
Together, we can positively impact Burundi's future and leave no orphan destitute.
Mission
The Orphans of Our Lady of Sorrows Foundation is a Catholic foundation guided by the light of the Holy Spirit. We offer love, nourishment, spiritual and physical support, education, and protection for Burundi’s most vulnerable and oppressed children, regardless of race, religion or creed. We hope to interrupt this cycle of poverty and allow the children to grow into adults who will positively impact Burundi’s future.
Goals
We are proud to share that we have achieved our short-term goal: the orphanage in Kabezi, Burundi is now complete and provides a safe, loving home for 50 children ranging in age from newborns to 18 years old.
Our mission is far from over. We are actively working to welcome more children into our care and ensure that every child has access to education, nutritious food, emotional and physical support, and a secure future. Achieving this requires ongoing monthly support from compassionate donors like you.
​
To create long-term sustainability, we are investing in self-sufficiency projects such as cattle rearing and farming initiatives. These endeavors not only help us provide for the children’s daily needs but also ensure that we can continue to support their growth and development for years to come.
​
While our goals are ambitious, we believe in the power of community and hope. Together, we can accomplish the extraordinary — ensuring that no orphan in Burundi is left without care, opportunity, or hope.
