NDI recognizes the reality that today’s child is tomorrow’s leader.  So we intend to minister the Gospel of Christ along with practical help to neglected and orphaned children in the two-thirds world.  Our hope is to impact the young generation that can one day transform an entire nation for Christ.

In many cultures, the care of children is an afterthought.  Many parents view children as property assets instead of family.  You add to this mentality that many children are being orphaned or abandoned and you have thousands of young people suffering to survive.
 
NDI is intervening in the lives of these children in very poor countries to preserve physical life, instill spiritual life, and create educational opportunities.  

In a few instances, NDI is partnering with national leaders to offer feeding and literacy centers targeting orphans.  At one of these centers, these orphans and under-privileged children are not only given food but also instructed in the Word of God and academics.
