The Free Child Foundation has been established to offer relief aid to Orphaned and Vulnerable children, and families and communities in Africa that have been hit by Poverty, HIV/AIDS, Malaria, natural disasters, and Civil Wars. Our activities are centered on bettering the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children through provision of loving and caring children homes in selected countries where ALL their needs are met, education sponsorship opportunities, feeding programs, playing and recreation activities.

Mission Statement: 

To ease the pain of children in the impoverished African communities, and empower families and communities to fight poverty and disease.

Organizational Statement of Faith: 

We believe the Holy Scripture, the Bible, as originally given by Divine inspiration of God, infallible, and its consequent entire trustworthiness, supreme authority and standard in all matters of doctrine and conduct.
We believe the Sovereignty and the Grace of one God eternally self-existent in three persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit in creation, providence, revelation, redemption and final judgment.
We believe the Universality of the creation, sinfulness and guilt of fallen man, making him subject to God’s wrath and condemnation.
We believe our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God manifest in the flesh, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His vicarious and atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension, His work of mediation, His person, and His visible second coming in power and glory.
We believe the Salvation of the lost and sinful man through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ by grace through faith apart from works, and regeneration by God the Holy Spirit.
We believe the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling, empowering, illuminating, regenerating, and sanctifying work the believing Christian is able to live a holy and victorious life and work in the power of the risen Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe the existence of Satan and Demons, whose intent is to supplant God and frustrate His purpose and whose ultimate end is consignment to eternal punishment.
We believe the existence of Holy Angels, who worship and are God’s agents for the execution of His purposes and plans in heaven, the universe and on earth.
We believe the priesthood and spiritual unity of all those who, having believed in Jesus Christ for their salvation, have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit and form the universal church, the Body of Christ, of which He is the head, and which is committed by His command to the proclamation of the Gospel, the Good News, in Word and Deed throughout the world.
We believe the Bodily Resurrection of all the dead believers, who are justified sinners solely by the Grace of God through faith in Christ’s substitutional sacrifice unto everlasting blessedness and of the unbelievers unto judgment and everlasting punishment.
