Hope for the Future: Supporting the Conteh Orphans
“A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling.” — Psalm 68:5

Our Story: From Tragedy to Hope

In a single moment, the lives of 14 siblings in The Gambia were changed forever. A devastating car accident claimed the lives of both their mother and father, leaving a devoted Christian family without their providers and protectors.

Today, these children—ranging in age from 5- 18 are facing an uncertain future. While they are being cared for by their eldest brother, Foday Conteh, the financial burden of providing for a large family is overwhelming.

We are calling on our global brothers and sisters in Christ to stand in the gap for these little ones.

Their Immediate Needs

The Gambia is a beautiful nation, but for orphans without a safety net, the struggle for basic necessities is a daily reality. Your support will go directly toward:

Nutritional Security: Consistent, healthy meals to ensure they grow strong.

Safe Housing: Maintaining a stable roof over their heads and a secure place to sleep.

Education: School fees, uniforms, and books to break the cycle of poverty and honor their parents' dreams.

Medical Care: Access to healthcare and basic medicines.

Spiritual Support: Ensuring they can continue to attend their local church and grow in their faith despite their loss.

A Message of Gratitude

The loss of a parent is an immeasurable pain, but through your prayers and financial support, we can show these children that they are not alone. You are the hands and feet of Jesus to this family in The Gambia.

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