This is a video project I worked on all summer for New Hope Orphanage. I wanted to capture the beauty of the children as unique individuals, fully empowered and restored. I want people to see past the labels of "orphan," "victim," "children in poverty," and simply be CAPTIVATED by the children's beauty and joy! If you are reading this, I made this video for YOU and I hope you will fall in love with Timothy's laugh, Asan's hopping in the sunset, Anisha's adorably raspy voice, and baby Dan's perfect smile :) hehe.
The children in this video have overcome more hardships than most of us will probably encounter in a lifetime. But when you see their smiles, their dancing, their playing, and most heartfelt worship, you will SEE that their joy has truly been restored. Each one of these children is currently under the care of New Hope Orphanage in Busia, Uganda. I believe each child's healing runs deeper and deeper as they continue to experience community, family, and the irreplaceable love of Jesus every single day.
If the video inspires you to donate, visit http://newhopeafricanchildren.org/site/donate.html and simply click DONATE! :)
The children have so many needs - they lack simple necessities like clean water, pencils, toothbrushes, backpacks. If you're at all interested in volunteering with New Hope in the future, feel free to contact me at janieyoon17@gmail.com. The children lack mentors, role models, teachers, soccer coaches, and simply people that can love them, advocate for them, and live life WITH them. They are such beautiful and perfect children that deserve to see their dreams lived out and a place to call forever home. Please keep them in your prayers. Prayer changes everything :). Thank you!!
