“Our vision through One More Child is to meet the pressing needs of hurting children throughout the world.  Whether it is feeding a hungry child, digging water wells for families to have clean water, caring for orphaned children, building homes, making medical care possible and will allow us to meet these needs even more effectively.”

Among the major projects for One More Child in 2014 is a community transformation in the Dominican Republic. The project was made possible because of a partnership that Haag and churches to come alongside them to make this work possible.

Gunter agrees that the work of One More Child will be even greater because of the transition of its headquarters to Lakeland. 

“We have been based in Miami for the last five years and development,” said Gunter.

Last year, nearly 1,000 volunteers mobilized to locations served through One More Child.  Among them was Jeanette Lethers, a Lakeland volunteers, cared for up to 100 children daily.

“I am thrilled that One More Child is right here in Lakeland resources to an organization that has literally changed our lives,” said Lethers.

One More Child was founded in 2008 to help meet the rising needs of children in developing nations.  Since that time, the international organization has proudly worked to meet the physical needs of children and in doing so, showing them the transforming love of Jesus Christ.  For more information about how One More Child is meeting the needs of children, visit www.OneMoreChild.org or follow us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/OrphansHeart.
