Faith's Orphans Fund

While most of us have not experienced the loss of a home due to fire, we can imagine the shock and discouragement such an event would cause. Such was the case for Faith and her family when their home caught fire and was essentially destroyed. Fortunately, no one suffered injury during the blaze.

In response to the event, the Board of Directors of FOF Canada started a ‘Fund Me’ campaign to raise funds to help rebuild Faith’s home. As well, a team from Frankford Ontario flew to Zambia to lend their skills and labour to initiate the reconstruction. We are pleased to announce that thanks to the generosity of so many supporters, not only has the project been fully funded, but the reconstruction is nearing completion. Faith and her family are filled with gratitude for your support send their heartfelt thanks for turning a tragedy into a blessing.

Flights have been arranged and Visa secured so that Faith can return to Southern Ontario again this spring. Faith reminds us of how much she values meeting all the people who help to make her work with the vulnerable children in Zambia even possible. A tentative schedule is located on the Events page with updates to be added as confirmations are received.

Dear Friend of Faith’s Orphans Fund, 

We hope this message finds you well. We are reaching out to express our sincere gratitude for your continued support of Faith’s Orphans Fund. Your generosity makes a meaningful difference in the lives of the orphans in Zambia.

As you may be aware, the recent Canada Post strike in December caused delays in mail delivery, which impacted many of our supporters’ ability to make year end contributions. In light of these disruptions, we are pleased to understand that the Canada Revenue Agency has extended the 2024 donation deadline to February 28^th 2025.

This extended timeline allows you the opportunity to ensure your donation reaches us without concern of it not being included in your 2024 tax return, and we truly appreciate any support you are able to provide during this time. Your commitment to the ministry of FOF is invaluable, and together, we are making a lasting impact.

If you have already made your contribution, we thank you deeply for your generosity. If you plan to donate soon, please rest assured that your gift will be received and processed before the new deadline. If you could please indicate which tax year you would like your donation allocated to, we will ensure that happens. 

Thank you again for your unwavering support. We are incredibly grateful to generous donors like you who help us continue Faith’s work in Zambia.

With warmest regards,

Ian Ross
