Fighting For Helpless Orphans

October 15, 2007 By: Michael Nease Category: Humanitarian 1 Comment →

I would like to ask you to please take the time to read this post in its entirety. The subject matter is very dear to my heart. Please also see the videos at the bottom of the post as they clearly represent the message I represent:

There are two organizations that I support whole-heartedly because of both what they stand for and what they do. Mostly because they are helping those who have no one else to help them.

Streams Of Mercy

The first organization is actually run by my father Wick Nease, and is called Streams Of Mercy. Their main mission is caring for impoverished children and orphans throughout the world.

Streams Of Mercy

From their site:

The organization is actively involved in disaster relief, both man-made and natural, by mobilizing volunteers and resources to assist those in need.

Streams of Mercy strives to meet the most obvious needs of the destitute like food, clothing, shelter, and medical assistance, as well as meeting the less visible needs of care and comfort. Utilizing volunteers with genuine compassion means that resources can get to these individuals with a minimum amount spent on administrative services, thereby maximizing the impact of donations.

With over a dozen orphanages, and growing, Streams Of Mercy is doing so much to change the lives of countless helpless children and their families. (Please take the time to watch their video at the bottom of this post)

Love146

The second organization is called Love 146 (Formerly JFCI). Their mission is simple and clear: “End child sex slavery & exploitation!”

Love 146

From their site:

Love146 works toward the abolition of child sex trafficking and exploitation through aftercare, prevention and advocacy. Love146 trains aftercare workers, multiplies safehomes, aids socioeconomic development programs in high risk communities and provides a voice for these victims of modern-day slavery.

Please take the time to watch the following two videos, and consider what part you can take- whether it be giving, going or telling. The first is about Streams Of Mercy, and and the second is about Love 146:
