Give a Gift with Impact this Year that Lasts Beyond Christmas

Shop An Orphan's Wish List

For an orphan who’s gone without the basics, like shoes that fit, clothes without holes, a book to learn from, or even a Bible to hold, your compassion can change everything.

This Christmas, you can give gifts that do more than fill a stocking. You can give dignity, comfort, confidence, and the joy of knowing they are loved by God and by you.

Would you please consider shopping for one more child this year?

100% of your gift goes to where you designate, meeting urgent needs and opening doors that can change a child’s future.

Keep reading to explore some of the most meaningful gifts on An Orphan’s Wish List, and see how your Christmas kindness can make a lasting impact.

A child in need of new clothingShoes and Clothing

  • Rescued Kinship Kids grow fast, always needing shoes that are comfortable and clothes that fit. This wish doesn’t just protect their feet, it gives them the self-esteem they deserve.
  • Clothes without tears and shoes without holes provide a child with priceless dignity and self-confidence. Especially after that child was abandoned, sometimes arriving barefoot, wearing rags.
  • $20 provides a full outfit for an orphaned child (clothes, undergarments, and shoes).

  • Kinship Kids are hungry for God’s word, and you can put a Bible in the hands of every child who reaches out their hands for one!
  • Amplify their voices of prayer by providing musical instruments! Learning how to play an instrument heals and mends orphaned kids’ trauma in incredible ways, growing their relationship with the Lord every time they play or sing.
  • $25 provides five Bibles for five children. $100 buys a musical instrument for the worship band.

Students in PakistanEducation and School Supplies

  • Gifts that feed, clothe, and keep Kinship Kids clean are essential to their health and happiness. But a gift to Education gives an orphan something he never had before his rescue: a future.
  • Kinship Kids love to learn. These “smarty pants” bring their brains and great attitudes every single day! Will you fill their backpacks with the books and school supplies they need to succeed? They need new textbooks, supplies, and uniforms that fit.
  • $160 sends one child to school, covering their education fees, supplies, and uniform. $45 buys and fills a backpack full of school supplies for an orphan.

Merry Christmas, and thank you for opening your heart to the “least of these” this season.

“‘For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me…’” –Matthew 25:34-36

Once in a while we receive more contributions for a given area of need than can be wisely applied. When this happens, we apply those funds where they are most urgently needed.
