Children's Villages and Schools

Our Work Worldwide

The work of L’ESPERANCE Kinderhilfe includes children’s villages, education, mission outreach, and vocational training. The following figures provide an overview of our projects around the world.

Children and Education

Currently, L’ESPERANCE supports:

• > 226 orphaned children in Ethiopia, Uganda, and Bolivia
• > 2,080 students in Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda, and Brazil

Through our children’s villages and schools, we aim to provide not only care and protection, but also education and opportunities for a better future.

Mission and Church Outreach

• > 368 baptisms in 2025
• > A school for self-supporting missionaries in Brazil
• > Mission outreach in surrounding communities in word and deed
• > Adventist education for young people and adults

Our mission work combines practical help with spiritual guidance, serving local communities and strengthening faith.

Agriculture and Self-Sufficiency

• > 297 hectares of agricultural and forestry land
• > Cultivation of vegetables and fruits
• > Production of milk, eggs, and fish, as well as livestock farming
• > Agricultural training school in Rwanda

Agriculture plays an important role in strengthening sustainability and helping our projects become increasingly self-supporting.

Vocational Training and Health

• > Vocational training programs
• > Bakery in Ethiopia
• > Carpentry workshop, bakery, tailoring, and hair salon in Bolivia
• > Health promotion programs in Brazil
• > Educational programs and health weeks

These initiatives equip young people and local communities with practical skills while promoting healthy living.

In all our projects, we combine child care, education, vocational training, and practical help for self-reliance.
