Our Impact
Located in Democratic Republic of Congo, Bolingo Village is the signature project of Global Orphan Foundation. By employing widowed women as licensed foster moms and building families with orphaned children, we are leveling the playing field for orphaned children in Congo and affording them the emotional, physical, and spiritual care that they need to thrive. Our sustainable children’s care village goes beyond meeting basic needs by providing access to education, a clinic for consistent medical care, a farm for balanced nutrition, clean running water, a loving foster family, and space to run, play and be kids. In short, Bolingo Village is a community that allows for a robust and abundant childhood with a bright future.
Our mission to help the world’s most vulnerable children doesn’t stop with Bolingo Village! We have other projects and partnerships.

Nutrition Program
Global Orphan Foundation has always had a focus on nutrition.
From 2014-2016, we partnered with DRC orphanages to provide Plumpy’Nut, a therapeutic ready-to-use food that is specifically formulated to combat severe malnutrition. Medical staff visited weekly to monitor and record each child’s progress, allowing for each child to graduate the program at a normal, healthy weight.
Launched in 2017 the insect farming program includes a micro-farm and farm training center in DRCongo. Insect farming is fast, simple, environmentally friendly, inexpensive, and most importantly incredibly nutritious. One serving of insects can contain more than twice the nutrients in a serving of beef. The farm training program provides orphanages with all the necessary tools and support to create their own micro-farms.
