OUTREACH FOR NAZARETH ORPHANAGE

For the past 50 years, the orphanage has helped young boys and OFNO volunteers have improved the orphanage facilities. Currently, our vision is to bring siblings together to build a strong educational foundation and provide a safe and spiritual home campus environment at the Nazareth Orphanage in Tecate, Mexico, for young boy and girl orphans who are at risk for human trafficking. A sense of urgency exists since a small number of girls are already housed in temporary quarters at the orphanage. Together, with the help of OFNO, the Sisters of the Sacred Heart and of the Poor are dedicated to providing young boys and, in the future, girls with the necessities of food, permanent shelter, clothing and education and helping the children develop the virtues of faith, hope, and love. The plan is to build facilities for 50 girls to help unite the families and to bring in the young girls who have undesirable living conditions. The budget for construction of a girls' dormitory, a kitchen and dining facility and the requisite infrastructure to accommodate the young girls is $750.00.00 US. OFNO has raised $726,631 towards this goal.
