Happy New Year! We hope your 2026 has kicked off to a great start! We are thrilled to share some wonderful news with you:
Together, we surpassed our $100,000 year-end goal including raising more than $25,000 for DonorSee projects and an additional $75,000 for ongoing HRI programs and continued hurricane relief! THANK YOU!
This milestone is a powerful reminder of what is possible when compassionate people come together for the sake of others. Because of your generosity, real lives have been changed.
Every dollar given represents a person with a name, a story, and immeasurable value. From vulnerable orphans who now have food, care, and protection… to displaced families seeking safety and water… from single mothers striving to provide for their children… to widows facing hardship with courage… from children living with disabilities… to precious babies still in utero whose lives were protected and supported—each one matters.
Every contribution played a vital role in meeting urgent needs and restoring hope. Lives have been saved, strengthened, and improved because you chose to act. Thank you for believing that every life is worth fighting for.
In 2025, we together served 297,575 people! We knew we would grow in 2025, but your giving enabled us to surpass our dreams. Thank you for your generosity, your trust, and your partnership. We are deeply honored to walk this mission with you into 2026.
POSTED OCTOBER 2025:
As 2025 draws to a close, HRI is rallying supporters to help us finish the year strong and step into 2026 with renewed hope and momentum. We’ve set two exciting goals to close out the year - each which are highly attainable with your support:
Raise $25,000 on DonorSee – to fund critical, life-changing projects for vulnerable children and families. We already average $4,400 per month; won't you help us double that as we close out the year?!
Raise $75,000 Direct to HRI– to help with our broader Year-End Campaign goal to strengthen HRI’s ongoing relief, education, and resilience work. Last year we met our 75K goal! With your help, we will do it again!
Every dollar raised on our DonorSee campaign helps us move closer to our combined $100,000 goal — ensuring HRI can continue meeting urgent needs and investing in long-term hope in 2026.

On behalf of everyone at HRI, thank you for standing with orphans, vulnerable children, and families facing hunger, displacement, and extreme hardship. When you give to a HRI, you provide more than a meal—you give stability, dignity, and hope.
Since 2010, we’ve provided 71.9 million meals—71 million times a child or adult went to bed nourished, with hope and comfort. Right now, we’re reaching severely malnourished children and their families, bringing electricity to rural clinics for safer deliveries, providing clean water, tarps, and hygiene kits to displaced families, and supporting school scholarships and supplies for orphans. This year alone, 89 orphans and hundreds of children received hygiene kits—giving them health, dignity, and confidence and hundreds more received nourishing meals every day.
From shanty towns to disaster zones, your compassion reaches people at their most vulnerable moments. $25,000 may seem big—but it starts with one child, one family, one partner at a time. And when we focus on the one, the impossible becomes attainable.
Thank you for your partnership in this life-changing work. Because of you, lifesaving help arrives exactly where and when it’s needed most.
