Our Mission

Empty orphanages in Zimbabwe; fill homes with the blessing of children.

The Problem: Zimbabwe is home to 1.8 million orphans.

Many of these children have been orphaned by AIDS and poverty. International adoption is not practiced in Zimbabwe.

Orphaned children will find themselves in one of three places: on the streets, in an orphanage, or in an adoptive family home. While adoption is the best of option, Zimbabwe is a developing country with high unemployment and poverty rates.

While adoption is the best of these options, Zimbabwe is a developing country with high unemployment and poverty rates. Many native Christian families want to adopt, but are restricted by financial need.

The Goal: Empty orphanages to fill homes.

Empty the Orphanage partners with churches and Christian families in Zimbabwe to provide resources to make adoption possible.

You can sponsor a family’s adoption of one child for only $35 per month. Empty the Orphanage has a vision for emptying the orphanages of Zimbabwe and filling the homes of loving Christian families.

While Zimbabwean Christians bring hope to orphans through adoption and care, American Christians supply the frontlines with much-needed resources. It’s a beautiful picture of the church working together to build the Kingdom of God and love God’s children.

Join Us.

The Empty the Orphanage team has been working strategically since 2007 to equip the frontlines of Zimbabwe’s orphan care. With over 14 years in ministry, we’ve been able to financially support dozens of native families, leading to the adoption and care of 25+ children. Regardless of nationality, we can come together and work together to bring hope to Zimbabwe’s orphans.

From The Frontlines

“On behalf of the families who have been taking care of orphans in their homes I just want to say thank you for the partnership that we have in the ministry.  These children are more happy than children in the orphanage, I have been watching them for some time now and you can tell that they are now part of the family and you can actually see smiles on their faces.”
