Our Vision: We rescue, love and care for orphans,
meeting their needs spiritually, physically, academically and emotionally—preparing them for a brighter future.


At Danita's Children, we follow the biblical directive to rescue, love and care for orphans. We believe that when we do, we are following Christ's commandment and are acting as His hands and feet. We believe it is not just the responsibility of those who are called to full-time ministry to be concerned for orphans, but that it is the responsibility of all believers and Christ-followers.

In May 2009, through
God’s grace, my audacious dream once again became reality. Guervens, a
sweet, shy, very thin 4-year-old orphaned boy, became the newest member
of our Danita’s Children family.
He has sickle-cell anemia and appears to have been very malnourished. I believe that with the love and care of our home and staff, this little boy will thrive and come to know and understand the saving love of our heavenly Father.

On Feb. 10,
2009 a desperate Haitian
father arrived at the Haitian/Dominican border in Ouanaminthe with his
3-and-a-half year old daughter, Loveka. Mr. Daniel, her father, was
frantic to get Loveka to a Dominican hospital. Her mid-section was
swollen to several times its normal size. She was unable to walk, and barely able to
stand or speak. Mr. Daniel had been to several Haitian clinics over the
past ten months, but doctors, limited by their ability and lack of
tools to treat her, could only surmise as to what was causing the
bloated belly. Meanwhile, Loveka's grandfather
had administered a hundred folk cures without positive results.
Loveka's life was now hanging in the balance.

In 2005, a
distraught mother came to the missionaries
at Danita’s Children and asked if they would help her
daughter, who was near
death as a result of severe malnutrition. The girl was seven years old,
but
looked to be closer to three years, and it was clear that her body was
near its
breaking point.
In just a few months, Margarette had
regained much of her
strength and vitality as a result of receiving three meals a day,
medical
attention, and much love. However, it became clear that the damage that
severe
malnutrition had taken on her eyes was not going to be resolved as
quickly.
Over time, it became clear that Margarette would
lose her
vision entirely if something was not done quickly.
Arrangements were made to bring Margarette to the United States for examination and possible eye surgery.
