Description

Coptic Orphans is an award-winning international Christian development organisation that works with vulnerable and marginalised children in Egypt to transform their local communities by breaking the cycle of poverty and injustice through literacy, education, advocacy, mentoring, and basic needs.

Since the founding of the organisation in 1988, Coptic Orphans has touched the lives of over 15,000 children in Egypt.

We have four key programs to:

•Equip children who have lost a father with resources to access their basic rights through a church-based network of local volunteer advocates and mentors in the 'Not Alone' program.

•Build self-esteem in girls at risk of dropping out of school through interactive activities and one-on-one mentoring through 'The Valuable Girl' Project .

•Connect youth from around the globe to Egypt in 'Serve to Learn'.

•Support the education, health, and practical training of disabled, orphaned, and other disadvantaged children through our Grassroots Partner Initiatives.
