Our History
A Decade of Faithfulness.
Warm Blankets Orphan Care International was founded
in 1999 as a response to the overwhelming orphan
crisis throughout Asia and Africa. With a heart for the
least of these and a desire to see nations transformed
by the Gospel, Warm Blankets Orphan Care has a
vision to care for the orphans of the world and raise
them as disciples of Christ and leaders of their
generation.
What began as a private effort on a very small scale
in Southeast Asia grew into an international ministry
that has reached into over a dozen countries. For
years, the team has committed their resources to
research systems and models of raising at-risk and orphaned children. Leading orphan care
experts helped WBOCI formulate a successful model of rescue and care that is solidly based on a
Biblical world-view. The Lord revealed a plan that would provide a way to restore lost childhoods
in a Christ-centered home setting. This model provides children with a basis for decision-making
built on a firm foundation that they can trust.
And so, in 1999, Warm Blankets Orphan Care began working with the indigenous church to
transform nations and to restore childhoods through rescuing and caring for orphans and widows.
Today, WBOCI is one of the largest family reunification and orphan rescue organizations in the
world with hundreds of permanent Church Orphan Homes and a record of thousands of child-
family restorations in a dozen countries across Africa, Asia, and Europe.
