ONE MORE CHILD
Known as the “land of lakes and volcanoes”, Nicaragua is the largest country in Central America, but is also identified by the Council on Foreign Relations as the poorest financially. Due to years of civil unrest and governmental divide, Nicaragua faces many challenges in relation to basic human rights and social services. Malnutrition is a chronic problem – devastating both young and old, as well as lack of clean water and a commitment to education.
A long-term partnership with a local church create significant ministry opportunities in Nicaragua that enable One More Child to address these needs and help children thrive.
OUR IMPACT IN NICARAGUA
Mission Trips
Short-term mission teams have the opportunity to participate with our feeding program and help lead activities for children: Bible stories, songs, games, crafts, and sports. Outreach opportunities take place in communities, neighborhoods, and schools. Additionally, you may have the opportunity to work at a local senior living center by providing books, hygiene items, and, most importantly, love and care. Through extra educational and cultural excursions you could develop deeper relationships with the children you serve.
Child Sponsorship
Through a long-term partnership with a local church in Managua, we are working to address the needs of children through our Child Sponsorship program. This includes a monthly food basket for children, regular community trainings and consistent opportunities to hear the gospel.
Community Development
To fight child hunger and chronic malnutrition in Nicaragua, One More Child hosts a consistent feeding program as well as a discipleship program for school-age children. As opportunities arise, we also build homes for families.
