About Us

Vision

We believe that caring for orphans and vulnerable children is a mandate for the global Body of Messiah and one of the purest expressions of the Gospel. HaTikva Families equips families to respond to the OVC (orphan and vulnerable child) crisis in Israel through adoption and foster care and encourages the Israeli Body of Messiah to take a leading role in this effort.

Children in Israel Today
367,000*
At-risk children
20,400*
OVC in institutions
10,000*
Removed from homes
Yet there are only 120 adoptions per year.

"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this:
to look after orphans and widows in their distress..."
James 1:27
