Sometimes one act of hope opens the door to another.

Our partners in Uganda recently met four-year-old Victor while evaluating his family for a new home—one that, thanks to the generosity of our supporters, Open Hearts for Orphans will be providing. ❤️

During the assessment, they learned something that immediately caught our attention: Victor is unable to stand or walk without assistance and, remarkably, he had never received a medical evaluation to understand why.

And this is where the story comes beautifully full circle.

Because of our newly refurbished Josiah's Hope Pediatric Ward, we had a connection to help.

Victor was referred for a medical assessment and neurological evaluation, and yesterday he received an MRI. Now we wait for his appointment with the neurologist on September 18 to learn more.

Will you please pray with us?

🙏 For answers.
🙏 For wisdom for Victor's medical team.
🙏 And most of all, that whatever the diagnosis may be, there is treatment or therapy available that can help this precious little boy gain greater mobility and independence.

What a gift that would be—not only for Victor, but for his mama and entire family.

We set out to help provide this family with a safe home with our partners. We never imagined that along the way, we might also help uncover a medical need and connect their little boy with care.

This is what happens when partnerships cross paths and open hearts work together. One need leads us to another...and another opportunity to say YES. 🥹

We'll keep you posted on Victor. For now, please cover this sweet boy in prayer. 🙏

Introducing the Adoption FAM Club™ - because saying “yes” is only the beginning! For a decade, Open Hearts for Orphans has had the privilege of helping families say YES to adoption. But we also know something important: bringing a child home isn't the end of the adoption journey. Actually, it's just the beginning.

That’s why we are excited to officially introduce the Adoption FAM Club™, our post-adoption wraparound support program to help adoptive families feel supported, connected, and equipped for the journey ahead.

Through the Adoption FAM Club™, members have access to a growing network of resources, referrals, education, community connections, family support and practical assistance designed specifically with adoptive families in mind.

We've already begun this effort with our SAY YES grant families, and we plan to additionally build a local model in Palm Beach County with the vision of expanding our reach in the future.

This isn't a change in our mission. It's a deeper commitment to it. We have always believed in helping families say yes. Now, through the Adoption FAM Club™, we are making another promise: We'll be there after the yes, too. 🥰

***SEE ME SATURDAY***

Meet Nelson and Nico - two brothers with sweet personalities and their own unique interests.

5-year-old Nico is outgoing, playful, and full of charm. He has an impressive memory and can count all the way to 100. His cheerful personality and enthusiasm make him a delight to be around.

6-year-old Nelson is one of those kids who seems to have a whole lot going on behind those bright eyes. He is incredibly smart, already reading, and knows Chinese characters. And if you happen to have a dinosaur question, Nelson is probably your guy. He is fascinated by animals of all kinds. He also discovered that jumping into the pool is even more fun when you jump straight into someone's arms!

Nelson has a playful side that really shines when he's having fun. He absolutely lit up when taking pictures and getting to do different animal impersonations. He has a wonderful way with younger children and was excellent with the little ones around him. Smart, curious, playful, and full of interests, Nelson has a lot to share with the people around him.

Together, Nelson and Nico are a wonderful sibling pair, each bringing their own strengths and personality. If you'd like to learn more about these brothers, reach out to Gladney International by email at: [email protected].

Families may be eligible for our SAY YES adoption grant at OHFO. Please reach out if you would like to know more about adoption through our ARISE program. ❤️

FRIENDS - another little cutie has officially started school for the very first time! ❤️

Precious Mila Joy came home through domestic adoption in 2023 with the help of our Downright Lovable grant, created specifically for families adopting children with Down syndrome.

And seriously… isn’t she adorable?! 🥹

When we asked her mama how we could pray for Mila this school year, she shared:

“My prayer is for Mila to remain healthy, make many new friends, and tackle each milestone as she transitions to an inclusive class this year.”

Those sound like some pretty wonderful intentions to us. ❤️

So today, we’re cheering Mila on as she begins this exciting new chapter. We pray for kind friends, patient teachers, joyful learning, growing confidence, and lots of beautiful milestones along the way.

Go shine, Mila Joy! We’re so proud of you! ✨

Open Hearts for Orphans is excited to be part of the Access for all Abilities Showcase - a FREE day of connection, resources, education, and fun for families in Palm Beach County created by Bella's Angels, Inc.

📅 Saturday, August 29
⏰ 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM
📍 Hilton Palm Beach PBI
150 Australian Ave., West Palm Beach

We'll be there sharing about something especially close to our hearts: ADOPTION. ❤️

Come learn about our SAY YES adoption grants, including our Downright Lovable grant created specifically for families adopting children with Down syndrome and other ways we help remove financial barriers for families saying YES to children with special needs.

We'll also be sharing about ARISE, our adoption awareness and recruitment program for individuals and families who have ever wondered:

"Could adoption be part of our family's story?"

If that question has ever crossed your mind—even just a little—we would LOVE to meet you. There are children waiting right here in our community who need the love, stability, and permanency of a family.

The event will also feature local nonprofits and community resources, breakout sessions, activities, crafts, face painting, and plenty of fun for the kids!

Come for the resources. Stay for the fun. And maybe...open your heart to something you never expected.

Stop by the Open Hearts for Orphans table and say hello. We can't wait to meet you! ❤️

LOOK AT ZAHARA NOW! ❤️

What a beautiful update to receive from Uganda! Our partners recently sent us this new photo of Zahara, one of the precious children who received life-changing heart care through our Hearts of Hope cardiac program last November—and just look at her! 🥹

We're told that Zahara is doing well and enjoying life, and honestly, her charm and beauty seem to spill right out of this photo. ❤️

These are the updates we live for.

To everyone who helped make Zahara's heart surgery possible: thank you. Because you said yes, this beautiful girl received the care she desperately needed—and today, she has the opportunity to simply enjoy being a child.

They waited SO long for her healing and never gave up. We know her mama is deeply grateful - and so are we.

Keep shining, beautiful Zahara. What a joy it is to see you thrive! ❤️

Sweet Shruti came home from India last year with the help of our SAY YES adoption grant, and we are so happy to report that she is THRIVING!

And today brings another beautiful milestone...

IT'S HER VERY FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL! 🎉

There are certain "firsts" that hit a little differently in adoption, and this is certainly one of them. A new backpack. A new classroom. New friends. New opportunities. And, most importantly - a family waiting to hear all about her day when she gets home. 🥹

Will you join us in covering Shruti in prayer today? Please pray that she feels confident and secure, that she is surrounded by kind teachers and friends, and that this new chapter is filled with learning, growth, and JOY! 🙏🏼

From India...to HOME...to her very first day of school.

Look at you go, Miss Shruti! We're cheering for you! 😍

Thank you to everyone who supports our SAY YES adoption grants. These are the beautiful moments you help make possible.
