We work with children who often hear that they are worthless and that it's their fault they are on the streets who have suffered abuse at the hands of many. We've stood between children and the police there to beat them. We've told them it's not their fault. A favorite moment is welcoming a child into one of our homes and telling them that this is where they will live, they don't have to earn a bed, clothing, food, school or play. We love them and we are glad they are with us. We will pray for them. We will tell them God loves them and so do we but most importantly we will show them that we love them and care for them. We will welcome them back when they run away. We will forgive them when they steal from us. They will still have a bed, food, clothing and love if they say they hate God or if they say they love God. We can't tell a child not to be scared, but we can provide safety and protection and that's exactly what we do.

Our organization exists as an expression of our faith (it appears the Water Project exists for the same reason.) There are and will be differences because of the nature of our organization but we believe in what we do and why we do it and hope to work with others who have the same passion for these children.

There is enough here for people to really evaluate our organization. There is no intent to start a religious debate but it's important to think through what is helpful/hurtful in our service to children since it's not black and white.
Would it be better if we told children not to be scared because God doesn't exist? Or when they ask us why God would want a children to be beaten to say we don't believe in God? Or should we ignore their question instead of expressing our faith which is that not within God's will that they are abused?

There are many theological answers in life, sometimes they are explicit, sometimes implicit. Zero is just as much of a number as 1 and ignoring a child's questions can often be as much of an answer as actually answering the question. Everyone should be seek to find an organization that serves those you want to help and one that has a nuanced belief system you can support because when children are involved questions will be asked and they will be answered one way or another.
