At Farm of the Child, we are CHILD advocates. We work hard to give children a second chance at a new start!
Farm of the Child (Finca del Niño - Honduras) cares for up to 50 children, ranging in ages from 3 up to 21 years - 24 hrs a day / 365 days a year - for as long as the youth needs us. Younger children live in family-style homes and adolescents and young adults in independent living homes.
Many of the children who arrive at the Farm of the Child suffer from malnutrition, intestinal parasites and other health problems. Many have had little or no schooling. Others have experienced considerable emotional and physical trauma, and many have lacked the love and affection EVERY child deserves. We provide a home-like environment, based on the model of the Holy Family. We allow each child to grow, learn respect for others, and have the opportunity to become a happy member of a loving family.
Please consider helping a child by learning more about how to sponsor a CASA (a small home). Caring for the children, clothing them, feeding them, caring for the spiritual and emotional needs of each child is a privilege and a labor of love.
"...the many children who don't have food - that's not news. This is grave. We cannot rest easy while things are this way." — Pope Francis
