Our Programs

Six core programs. One bigger vision.

We combine immediate care with long-term education, skills, livelihoods and leadership.

• SAMS: Young people aged 15–21. June–August.
• Empower Cycle: Widows and underserved youths. As set out in the approved annual activity calendar.
• Food Bank: Underserved individuals. March–October.
• Beyond the Orphanage: Children in orphanages in or entering secondary school. Begins around back-to-school; support continues through secondary-school completion.
• Santa Box: Orphans, widows and underserved communities. December.
• GLOF — Smiles Africa Global Fellowship: African young adults aged 21–30. March–May.

How the programs connect

Care and basic needs → education → skills and livelihoods → youth leadership → global exposure. Each program contributes to pathways toward self-reliance and sustainable futures.

The Prayer Team supports all six programs and is not a separate beneficiary program.

Hygiene for Health remains available as a historical community-care initiative outside this current six-program portfolio.

Program cycles describe the usual annual rhythm. Contact the team for specific dates and intake availability.
