1. Jesus is our Savior
We are a Christian organization and believe that the Bible is the inspired and only infallible authoritative Word of God, and we are dedicated to fulfilling God's will in all that we do. (John 14:6)
2. Spiritual growth
We are dedicated to the glorification of God and the spiritual growth of those residing at the orphanage. (Titus 1:9)
3. Assisting the El Sauzal Orphanage
We value the work, both past and present, of the administrators of the El Sauzal Orphanage. As such, our first priority is to assist the El Sauzal Orphanage to become financially secure. (Acts 11:28-30)
4. Helping wounded children
We value needy, orphaned, abandoned and abused children, and strive to find ways to aid them with their spiritual, physical, emotional and educational needs. (James 1:27)
5. Cultural sensitivity and respect
We respect that the methods and style of leadership and decision making of other cultures may be different from our own. (Galatians 3:28)
We are required by our bylaws to maintain financial controls to assure donors that the highest percentage of all contributions goes in direct support of orphanage operations, maintenance and improvements. The Foundation adheres to the Standards of Responsible Stewardship as established by the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability. (I Corinthians 4:2) Fiscal transparency is also imporant to our Foundation. See our recent 990 tax forms: We strive to connect supporters with the orphanage children and staff by providing information and structure. We seek to develop a community made of those who live at the orphanage, work there, and support it from afar. (I Corinthians 13)
