Go Somewhere.
With more than 143 million orphans in the world today, it’s hard to justify doing182 nothing. All Christians have a responsibility to care for “orphans and widows in their distress” (James 1:27). It’s what James called “pure religion.” It’s what we call “your mission.”

Buckner connects caring Christians with orphan and at-risk children for short-term missions in several countries including: China, Guatemala, Ethiopia, Kenya, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Russia, and Peru. Buckner also offers domestic missions opportunities along the United States-Mexico border. (more)

Be a Voice.
Imagine being trapped inside the walls of desperate circumstances, living on the streets, living without parents, living without hope. You have no words – no voice – no one to hear you.

At Buckner, we are the voice for the voiceless – orphans and at-risk children forgotten by the world. And you can be, too. Your monthly donation of $25 can be a child’s voice and provide on-going support to build future possibilities. Be a Voice today. (more)
