Hey, I'm Rex. I first visited Ecuador in 1999 and have been returning ever since. I can still remember Maria Jose's first birthday at the orphanage. Although she's 20 now, her special needs leave her small enough that I can still scoop her up in my arms. I'll visit Maria's orphanage as well as several others in Quito and Cuenca on this trip. I'll be in Ecuador until March 19th.

Since 1999, I've seen miracles big and small for the children. The miracles have come through dedicated nuns, selfless orphanage workers, eager volunteers, and generous donors. Everytime I come, there are more needs than I and OSSO (Orphanage Support Service Organization) can meet. Please donate and help me share some miracles on this trip. Donations of any size help.  $5 buys all the rice needed for an orphanage for a day. 
 
The funds will be used for those things that the orphanages ask for during my visit.  In the past these are things like; baby formula, diapers, food, clothes, orphanage repairs, cleaning supplies, milk etc. etc. etc. Some things have changed since 1999, but the constant need hasn't changed.

All money raised by this gofundme will go directly to OSSO but I guarantee that every penny raised with this gofundme will be used for the things asked for by the nuns and other orphanage directors. 

If you would like a tax receipt, donate directly to orphanagesupport.org
