Around the world, there are an estimated 153 million orphans! To put this in perspective, the population of the United States in 2012 was approximately 313 million. (So HALF of the US population is just about equal to the orphan population across the world!) The amount of orphans worldwide is 8.5 times larger than the population of Shanghai, China! The amount of orphans around the world is 40 times larger than the population of Los Angeles!!!!
I don't know about you, but I find this to be shocking! And it has got to change!!! I know a lot of people think to themselves, "I'm just ONE person, how can I make a difference to SO many orphans??!!" The answer is simple, HELP ONE ORPHAN! If everyone helped just one orphan, just imagine how these numbers would change! You don't have to adopt to help, (I know adoption is not for everyone) but you can support them in some way! Support a couple striving to adopt, ask a missionary how you can help them to help orphans, pray for God to show you how you can help in some way!
If we all tried to make a little difference in the world, we would definitely make a huge difference together!
