This sweet girl (who does not have a sponsor) is called Nafu. She is 12 years old, this sweetheart (barely looking 6!) She has great difficulty in walking. We want to get her a wheelchair, which costs 140 euros.
If you think you can contribute to this small goal, we will have done something very important for this unfortunate child.
This sweet bundle of joy, a happy little angel called Juma (4 years old) needs some luck to find a long-distance parent, or, at least, funds for a batch of food (he’s never received anything).
Fingers crossed, little one! Let me hope that you capture someone’s heart today!
At HOCT, we do not usually get companies as sponsors. This has happened very rarely – and don’t think of big names – usually companies of our regular sponsors and friends.
I am not even sure how these people from LÖF heard about us, but a fact is that a couple days ago, I received a donation from them, which allowed me to save a few little lives (I scheduled single mothers with babies, and two other girls who suffered from malnutrition); I exchanged a few emails back and forth, and was an absolute joy.
They asked for nothing in return – like the true good people do. They did not ask me to write about them, nor to send them photos, nothing at all – it doesn’t get any better than this. This is true humanity, at its best.
This company sells jewellery, but they also give a beautiful lesson in kindness – which is the most important ornament that the human being can wear.
I have so many wonderful stories to tell you because so many great things happen every day! But these days, this boy has just filled my heart! He had come to the office to show off some of his notebooks, how proud he was!
His name is Miracle – yes, just like that. And Miracle is just attending school thanks to the love and care of his long-distance mother, Claire, who made it all possible. He is so happy and so joyous to attend school because he knows it perfectly well – this is the only way for him to build himself a better future.
Well done, Miracle, sweet boy! We are very proud of you and seeing your notebooks was such a treat! Keep it up – you have a beautiful handwriting!
Her actual name is Surprise. She is a beautiful 10 year-old girl, with the most beautiful name and the most beautiful smile, one who will bring joy into your life if you choose to become her long-distance parent for a year.
She needs a dress, a batch of food and your faith in her.
This sweet little boy needs a long-distance parent, he is a full orphan, but so far he has been out of luck. Meanwhile, if anyone wishes to offer this little boy (he is just 4 years old) a one-time donation of food, please know that you are MORE than welcome!

This adorable little girl is not even two years old. Her mother died after having given birth to her, and her father cared for her for only one year or so, after which he dumped her at the doorstep of some relatives.
Very luckily, those relatives are some of the most amazing people in HOCT family – the household of our bright, beautiful albino buy Munyira Asuman, and his loving grandmother. They did not hesitate to take this baby inside and look after her.
She is just a little button. She deserves to be cared for and loved as she deserves.
I am looking for a committed sponsor for Baby Justine Mary, to care for her and nurture her and feed her. They have a good house (we fixed it ourselves) and no other needs for now – just food.
Send a small amount for food for baby Mary and try the experience of being a part of HOCT, of our family!
Some of the children we are working on, each day, are doing very well, thriving, happy, smiling. Some others are very ill, but we love them all just the same and we fight for each little life.
The merit is not ours.
The merit belongs to all the people who give a little bit (a very little bit) of their monthly income, to help a child grow.
We have friends that have supported their children for years. Just earlier, together with RoseAnne, we were looking at the photo of one of her boys and we were wondering: How much he’s grown!
The reason for which those children grow – the reason for which they STAY ALIVE, the reason is that you choose to offer them food.
There is a special person that does not have Facebook or other social media, and that follows us through our website. Each month, she sends donations fot the children who have lost sponsorship for some reasons, or who never received anything.
Luma does not want anything. No photos, no smiles, no praise. But she deserves them. She deserves them because does her part, in this wounded word, she wants to change something – HOCT is just lucky to have received her act of incredible, continued kindness, but I know she helps many others. I am so grateful that she does.
So yes, just enjoy those photos; they may look boring and “same old, same old” but in each of them there is a child who, thanks to someone out there, has food and WILL survive.
