After School Education Program
Whereas only 1/3 of young people will not have started or completed primary school, this complementary primary school program prepares students for future opportunities by providing a strong foundation in reading, math, and life skills.
This program not only addresses academic needs for success but instills a biblical worldview that is also foundational to the curriculum. Parent involvement is a key factor in high retention and promotion rates and overall student success.

Discipleship Programs
One Hope and AWANA (Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed) discipleship programs bring new life to our partners’ children’s ministries.
“OUR CHILDREN ARE SO ENGAGED WITH THE AWANA CURRICULUM THAT THEY BRING THE LESSONS AND ACTIVITIES BACK HOME TO THEIR FAMILIES, THEIR NEIGHBORS, AND EVEN THEIR SCHOOLS–THEY ARE EVANGELIZING.” — AFTER SCHOOL EDUCATION PROGRAM TEACHER
THE LUCHT FAMILY
When David and his colleagues rang the opening bell of the NASDAQ Stock Market to celebrate the company’s initial public offering he leaned over to his long-time partner and said, “we are going to help a lot of children in Nicaragua.”
David and Mary (North Carolina) have been investing in the lives children in Nicaragua since 2011. They have incredibly passionate hearts for helping children in the United States and abroad. Through multiple investor trips to Nicaragua, they fell in love with our child transformation model and brought their friends and colleagues onboard.
In 2016, David and Mary’s investment launched ORPHANetwork’s After School Education Program (ASEP) to provide educational reinforcement for the children served in our Local Church Initiatives.
