NEW HORIZONS FOR CHILDREN
ORPHAN HOSTING PROGRAM
New Horizons for Children, Inc. is a Christian based, international hosting program, which brings over orphaned children from Eastern Europe twice a year to share with them the love of God and the love of a family.
Each January and August, LeAnn Dakake leads a small mission team to orphanages in Eastern Europe. LeAnn and her team look for children that could most benefit from experiencing life in a loving, stable, Christian family in America. Through personal experience and prayer, LeAnn and her team identify several children that are eligible to come to America for a 4-6 week visit.
Families from around the U.S.A. sign up to host a child or sibling group and also agree to fundraise which covers the cost of airfare and other travel related incidentals. By doing this, these children are given a first hand experience into what Christian family life and interaction is about which is something they may have never experienced. Regional programs now operate in the North East, South East, Central TX, and West Coast. Some children are able to travel to other areas with families who are willing to meet some additional conditions.
Many of these children have never had a positive family experience. They get a first hand glimpse of what healthy relationships can be! Some of these children have never experienced love in a wholesome manner or been able to show or receive affection. They also learn about American culture, nutrition, hygiene, and they're immersed in the English language! Their lives can be impacted greatly by their time in the U.S.A. while in your family.
