Christlike Compassion for Widows and Children in Need

Join us in providing urgently needed care for widows and abandoned children at terrible risk throughout the countries we serve.

In many places we serve, a widow is considered a curse and is therefore socially shunned, abused, neglected—and often abandoned by her own family. Tens of thousands of abandoned and neglected widows and children across Africa and Asia are suffering from hunger, homelessness and poverty.

Though no one cares for them, their Heavenly Father loves them dearly and wants to give them hope, help and healing. He told us in His Word, “Defend the fatherless, plead for the widow” (Isaiah 1:17b).

That’s why GFA World has an ongoing ministry to rescue and sustain the lives of neglected and abandoned widows and their children, as well as deserted street children.
