Child of Mine is a registered Canadian charity that partners with two children’s homes in Northern India. Rooted in a shared vision to raise future leaders who will love and serve India we walk alongside these homes to provide holistic care in a nurturing family-style environment. Many of the children come from orphaned or deeply vulnerable backgrounds and are welcomed into a supportive community where they can grow learn and thrive. We provide consistent financial support for essentials such as nutritious food safe housing clothing healthcare education staff salaries and facility development. Each child is supported all the way through their post-secondary education opening the door to meaningful opportunities and a future beyond poverty. Our work is made possible through international fundraising resource development and partnerships with individuals families and organizations who believe in the lasting impact of this mission.
