OUR BEGINNING
From scarcity to abundance
At the time I founded Generations Humanitarian, it seemed like the worst possible period to launch another nonprofit. That was November 2008, and the stock market had just crashed. Surprisingly, we survived the Great Recession and actually grew. Seventeen years later, as we look back, we have become astonished at our progress. We have helped rear some 1700 children. Many of our children at the Sunflower and Espinal homes (our first homes) have aged out, becoming productive members of society. They went from living in an orphanage to being caring mothers and fathers and providing a home for their own offspring, breaking the cycle of homelessness and poverty. They became business owners, accountants, chefs, and soldiers.
I look forward to working with you in the coming years. Right now, the world is preoccupied with geopolitical strife and economic scarcity and in the midst of all this commotion, those “disposable” street children still wander adrift—hungry, exposed, unloved, and fearful.
Our strategic plan is wrought with abundance in mind for these days. This is an invitation to you to bury your scarcity. It is an invitation to turn outward and increase your abundance by giving it away. Whether you are a home donor or strategic volunteer, you will find your place in this plan to move this great work forward.

Love and abundance to you,
