Simple Act of Caring to Change an Orphan's Life
|
The Glitter of Hope Foundation is a not-for-profit organization (501)c3 IRS (ID# 27-3213554) devoted to addressing the basic needs of orphan* children rescued from refugee camps in Africa and Asia and brought into the US as refugees. The Foundation’s Orphan Child Sponsorship Program makes it possible to ensure that a needy child receives ongoing financial and emotional support and helps to provide basic meals, shelter, much-needed clothing, an education and medical attention. To reach this goal, we rely on charitable donations from individual and institutions. 100% of collected funds go directly to programs.

*Orphan:
- The Arabic word for orphan is yatîm. Its linguistic meaning is simply "something that is singular and alone." When the word is used in the context of a human being, it means "a minor who has lost his or her father."
- Under U.S. immigration law, an orphan can also be a foreign-born child with a sole or surviving parent who is unable to provide for the child’s basic needs.
