Our Mission
Advocate for Orphans International seeks to express God's care toward Ukraine orphans by coordinating two to three week "American Culture Camps" for under-privileged Ukrainian children. Most of the children are able to be adopted and many will meet families who will want to share their love and lives as permanent members. Our program will provide the beginning of that adventure!
