The Crisis
There are 25 million orphaned children in India and the number is growing. It is estimated that one million orphans enter the system each year. All of these children share a similar story. A life of poverty, with no family to care for them, nurture them or nourish them. Many live on the streets and the "lucky" ones live in overcrowded, under-funded orphanages. The state of orphaned children in India is heart-breaking.
-
An estimated 31% of the babies surviving past the age of one will die before the age of five
- Approximately 18% of children under five in India are moderately to severely underweight
- The rapid spread of the HIV/AIDS epidemic has resulted in India possessing the largest number of AIDS orphans in the world
- UNICEF reports that 25 million orphans are living in India—a number equivalent to the population of the entire state of Texas

Most orphans live in overcrowded, under-funded, government orphanages. The rest live on the streets.
The conditions in the orphanages in India are far below the standards we have in the United States. Dilapidated, well-worn, and filled to over capacity, orphanages are no better than the conditions on the streets.
It is from these devastating conditions that The Miracle Foundation wants to break the cycle of poverty and birth a new miracle in the country of India. There are many ways you can get involved with this worthy cause, click here to learn more about how you can help.

As a global parent you'll change your life, and theirs, forever.
Our Standards for Child Care
All orphanages in The Miracle Foundation network follow the same set of standards, based on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and outlined in the United Nations Children’s Bill of Rights.
