WELCOME TO
THE ORPHANAGE.
WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT.
LET’S BUILD A VILLAGE!
The time is now. We need to raise $220,000 immediately to secure this land and begin building the village we have been praying for. God’s hand is all over this, and I am so grateful for every single person who has prayed, given, shared, and joined this mission.
Let’s build this village together. Let’s build something that will outlive us. Let’s leave a legacy.
Every family who gives toward this property will have their family name permanently added to the property as part of the legacy that made this village possible.
For major donors, we also want to honor your generosity in an even greater way, with opportunities for homes, streets, and other areas of the village to carry your family name.
This is bigger than land. This is about building a safe place for children. This is about changing generations. This is about leaving something behind that says, we were here, we cared, and we did something.
$220,000. The time is NOW.

Change the world, one home at a time.
For $60 a month, you can support a local family and help prevent children from entering the orphanage system in the first place. 50% of your gift goes directly to the family to help with essential daily needs, while 50% supports the children in our orphanage. Our goal is to strengthen families, help them become stable, and keep children safely with their families whenever possible.
Leave Your Name. Leave a Legacy.
Give as little as $10 a month and your name will be placed on our Legacy Wall at the orphanage as a lasting reminder that you chose to stand with vulnerable children. Your monthly support helps provide ongoing care while leaving a legacy of faith, love, and hope for generations to come.
Once an orphan. Once forgotten.
Now a voice that fights for the orphan.
Once an orphan himself, Kyle Ewald now fights for the orphan and the forgotten. His life is a testament to God’s redemption and a mission to make sure no child ever feels unseen again.
THE PAIN THAT BUILT ME.
The Pain That Built Me is a raw and inspiring memoir about overcoming loss, trauma, and adversity through faith in Jesus Christ. Through deeply personal stories, Kyle Ewald shares how God transformed some of life's darkest moments into a mission to bring hope to others and care for orphaned children in Guatemala. If you've ever wondered whether God can use your pain for something greater, this book is for you.

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT….
