Become a Cornerstone

This is one of the original site maps that helped us dream. While some details have shifted, the heart behind it remains—creating a safe, self-sustaining home filled with hope.

Because of you, this once-sketch-on-paper is becoming a place where children will grow, heal, and thrive.
We will share the final version soon so you can walk with us—virtually—through the very space you are helping build.

Join the Cornerstone Society – Change a Child’s Future

TheCornerstone Society is a circle of committed supporters whose generosity lays the foundation for something extraordinary: a safe, sustainable, and nurturing home for 100 children through the Shelter & Care project.

By giving$10,000, you become aCornerstone Member—helping construct a life-changing Ugandan orphanage where children will not only find shelter and love but also learn essential skills through our gardens and small animal/fish farms. These tools will empower the orphanage to become more self-sufficient and the children to lead self-sufficient, healthy lives as adults.

Your Impact:

Build a home for 72 children
Support gardens and animal care programs to improve health, cut costs, and teach lifelong skills
Equip children with the knowledge and confidence they’ll need after 18

We need30 founding members to complete construction, and8 new members annually to sustain this project as well as continue supporting another orphanage in a Tanzania.

A Special Thank You:

Each year you give, you will receive a beautifully printed photo of the children wearing their matchingCornerstone Society shirts—a gift lovely enough to proudly display and inspire others. Your second-year gift will directly provide each child with a new, matching shirt, ensuring they feel special and seen.

Become a cornerstone in their story.

Meet some of the beautiful children you are helping.

For many, this will be their very first time sleeping in a real building—with windows, doors, and safety. Some will feel clean running water on their skin for the first time. All of them will feel deeply loved—because of you. This is more than a shelter. It is a new beginning.

This is the shirt the children will wear in the photo you will receive—a beautiful keepsake and a heartfelt thank-you for your life-changing gift.

Late this summer, as we prepare the grounds and ready the new home for their arrival, the children will gather—dressed in these matching shirts—to smile just for you. Your generosity makes this moment possible. And this photo? It’s more than an image—it is a window into the joy, safety, and hope you helped create.

Meet some of the beautiful children you are helping.
