About Us

The Impoverished Orphan is an evangelical subdivision of Christianity. We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that he is the only way to salvation.  We exists to bring the good news to the poor and the orphan. These needs are met without discrimination. The poor is defined as extreme poverty and severe destitution in deplorable conditions. We define the orphan as any fatherless child or any child that has lost one or both of their parents and someone else has to step in and raise them. We meet their needs through three areas of emergency response services: 1) emergency relief, 2) educational resources, and 3) evangelism repentance.
