Children of the Nations

Vision: Raising Children Who Transform Nations

Mission:  To provide holistic, Christ-centered care for orphaned and destitute children, enabling them to create positive and lasting change in their nations.

Children of the Nations® (COTN®) is a Christian nonprofit dedicated to raising children out of poverty and hopelessness so they can become leaders who transform their nations.

We specialize in caring for the most desperate children in some of the poorest countries in Africa and the Caribbean. We emphasize caring for the whole child--physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually--not just providing temporary relief. Our programs are built to be sustainable for the long term, and are led by local, in-country staff members who understand the culture and the children.
