# The Orphan's Hands

> A faith-driven ministry rescuing orphaned and vulnerable teens in Moldova from trafficking, raising them in loving family homes at Vatra Village.

The Orphan's Hands takes in orphaned and at-risk teenagers who would otherwise age out of state institutions into homelessness and trafficking. At Vatra Village in Moldova, each teen is raised in a real family home with education, vocational training, faith, and the love of Christ — and many return as missionaries to the same villages they were rescued from.
