2nd Annual OFA Holiday Auction

Thank you for stopping by Our Family in Africa's 2nd Annual Holiday Auction!

All proceeds from the auction will benefit an orphanage we support in eastern DRC, near the city of Bukavu. This orphanage is home to approximately 50 children, ranging from newborn to seven years old. The orphanage was designed to temporarily take in newborns whose mothers had died in childbirth, an unfortunately common occurrence in developing countries such as DRC. Without a breastfeeding mother, a newborn’s chances of survival are very grim. Ideally, biological fathers or extended relatives would return for the child when the baby can be nourished with solid foods or otherwise cared for in her own village or family unit. Unfortunately, these families are often suffering from crushing poverty and may not return for the child. While these children remain in the care of this orphanage, OFA provides ongoing food supplies, so they may have the strength and nourishment to thrive and grow in a safe environment with loving caregivers.

Your kind donation will help us support this project, which is making a tremendous difference in the lives of vulnerable children. We value your partnership and thank you for helping us succeed in our mission. For more information about OFA and the children we serve, visit www.ourfamilyinafrica.org.
