Feeding the Orphans

Feeding the Orphans FTO exists to bring the love of Jesus to the people of Ghana and East Tennessee. When I was 7 years old, I started praying for a sister to add to my 2 brothers.

I would sit for hours and watch videos of orphans and read blogs. Then, when I was 10 years old, my parents finally decided to adopt! As we were waiting for my brother and sister to come home from Ghana, we had one picture of them. That picture was of my little sister holding a tiny piece of bread and she had not eaten in days. That picture inspired me to make a difference. One night we were drivi

ng home from my grandparents’ house and Mom wanted to stop and get dinner. The boys were excited, but I refused to eat. I asked Mom if we could buy bread for me instead. She said, “Only if you tell me what is wrong.” I looked at her with tears streaming down my face and said, “WHY SHOULD WE EAT LIKE KINGS AND QUEENS WHEN THEY HAVE NOTHING?”

That night, God told me to design a t-shirt to sell to raise money to provide food, medical supplies, and clean water to the orphans of Africa. I started a blog and named it Feeding the Orphans. My goal was to raise $500 and it was exceeded very quickly. I used the money to buy food and supplies for the orphanages and to feed hundreds of street children when we traveled for my brother and sister’s adoption in September 2010. Since then, God has continued to break my heart for the orphans and I just want to follow Him. I never thought following Him would lead this to be a nonprofit organization. Please join my family and I on God’s journey to care for the orphans of the world. Sydney

And I assure you that the time is coming, indeed it’s here now, when the dead will hear My voice—the voice of the Son of God. And those who listen will live. - John‬ ‭5‬:‭25‬ ‭

Every year, we pray about what God wants the Forget the Frock t-shirts to look like and every year He gives us exactly what He wants. This year is no different. But as I sat at His feet, I kept hearing “Laura’s favorite verse” over and over. A woman who loved bigger than anyone could imagine. A woman with a gift of seeing people, of making everyone around her feel loved and cherished and incredibly important. A true servant of her King. And this year, she rests in the arms of Jesus but her legacy, and the legacy of her Savior, continues to live through the ones she left behind. Her husband and children and grandchildren. She loved them bigger than the world, truly, so I have two requests for you…..1) pray for her people and for them to continue to feel her love living through them and 2) when you purchase a FTF tshirt in 2026 wear this shirt with her favorite verse and love bigger than before. Reach out to those you meet in the grocery store. Step out of your comfort zone. Do what Laura Fox would do and make a difference in the simplest of ways. Pray for the little ones that just need an extra hug and a whole lot of Jesus. And then be reminded that every shirt you purchase will literally change someone’s life in more ways than one.

But the Lord stood with me and gave me strength so that I might preach the Good News in its entirety for all the Gentiles to hear. And He rescued me from certain death. - 2 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭17‬
