Standing by 4,000 Children Every Morning

Across six countries, more than 4,000 children begin each day knowing they are seen, cared for, and loved. Through education, nutritious meals, family strengthening, and the hope of Christ, Stand by Me partners with local communities to help children and families build brighter futures that last. Five year old Abigael in Kenya is one of those children. Before joining Open Arms Academy, regular meals were not always certain. Today, she starts each school day with a warm breakfast, giving her the nourishment to learn, grow, and dream. Her story is just one of thousands that begin with someone choosing to stand by a child. Every gift helps write the next chapter. Just 78 cents provides one nutritious meal, and a gift of $25 helps provide a month of school breakfasts for a child. Together, gifts of every size ensure that thousands of children continue to receive the care, encouragement, and opportunities they need to thrive. Thank you for standing by children and families through Stand by Me.
