My personal message:
Thank you for your interest in Cherish Our Children and supporting my goal to provide young people around the world with opportunities to live their lives fully. 

I have had the great honor of leading Cherish Our Children International since 2002 and I continue to be inspired each day by the work this organization is doing to create a brighter future for children in really rough situations.  This year we expanded our work to a new program in Mexico, and continue our focus and success with programs in Israel, Kenya, Serbia, Romania and the US.  When I hear the stories of children we have helped, and when I have the great privilege of meeting some of these kids first hand,  I am deeply moved and I know it is worth all I can give to continue this work.  The passion and commitment of our board, volunteers and very small but dedicated staff is truly remarkable. And there is always so much more we can do, the need to help young people is very great in these turbulent and troubled times.   I invite you to join us in expanding our reach as we make a difference in children's lives, one child at a time.

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure.  We thank you so much for your generosity and support, and please take a moment to forward this to anyone who you think might want to contribute to COCI's kids!
