What is Orphan Sunday?

On November 10th, we celebrate Orphan Sunday, a day when we partner with Christian Alliance for Orphans to celebrate a God who defends the fatherless, helps the helpless and stands in the gap for those who have been abandoned, neglected or abused. Reflect His love by helping care for thousands of orphans in Florida and millions of orphans around the world by partnering with One More Child.

  • 153 million children worldwide have lost either one or both parents (UNICEF)
  • 18 million children have lost both parents (UNICEF)
  • In 2017, more than 16,000 children in Florida were removed from their homes due to investigations of abuse, abandonment and/or neglect (Department of Children and Families)

How can I partner with One More Child on Orphan Sunday?

To change the life of One More Child you can:

  • Host a diaper drive to help us reach our goal of 1 Million diapers by November 10
  • Help spread our message by having an Orphan Sunday event that encourages your congregation to purposefully bless one more child
  • Host a child sponsorship event to get food, water ands of underprivileged kids
  • Schedule a speaker who will educate, empower and inspire your group to ensure no child is left alone

What does an Orphan Sunday event look like?

Each local Orphan Sunday event is customized and individualized by the coordinator.  Past events have included Sunday morning sermons, prayer gatherings, educational seminars, video showings focusing on the orphan crisis, Sunday School 
class events, student-led 
fundraisers, foster and adoptive family recruiting, live concerts and more.

What resources are available as I plan my Orphan Sunday event?

Do you have speakers available for Orphan Sunday events?

What is the Orphan Sunday Diaper Drive?

The Orphan Sunday diaper drive is our annual effort to collect 1 Million individual diapers for children served through foster care, single mom’s ministry, pregnancy care centers and compassion ministries, as well as internationally through One More Child.

As an individual, group, church, or business, you have the ability to help us meet this growing need and make a difference in the life of a child!

Can individuals give online to make a difference through the diaper drive?

Absolutely. To give toward the diaper drive online, go to the diaper drive give now page. For a gift to be counted toward a church goal, individuals may add their church name on their donation form.

You can also drop ship diapers straight to our headquarters by using our easy Online Amazon Shipping option.

What specific diaper sizes are needed for children in care?

All sizes of diapers are needed and appreciated. Diapers for older children (sizes 4 and above), including pull-ups, are especially needed.

Can I make a monetary donation by check to go toward the diaper drive?

Yes. Monetary donations are appreciated and will be used to purchase diapers as needed. Checks can be made out to “OMC” with “diaper drive” in the memo and mailed to:
