  Executive Summary

Mission Statement:

OrphanAct’s mission is to provide on-going supplemental humanitarian aid to orphanages, homeless children's shelters, hospitals for abandoned babies, and other facilities for children-in-need on every continent.

Unique features of OrphanAct:

OrphanAct uses the power of the internet to display pictures of children and projects so that service organizations and individuals may easily select a project to sponsor or a facility to adopt.

How OrphanAct works:

1. In-country Rotary clubs select children's facilities that they would like to have a long-term relationship with.
2. They work with the local director to identify needs of the facility. 
3. They take photos of the children, and the children's facilities.
4. The photos and text are posted on the OrphanAct website.  
5. A Children's Action Team is created to support the facility. 
6. Organizations and individuals worldwide access the website, see the photos and then adopt a faciltiy. 
7. When a facility is chosen, OrphanAct works with the team to identify projects and programs that the facility needs and then helps to get the program in place or the projects completed. 
8. These teams are meant to provide long term support to a facility.
9. If an organization or individual would like to fund a one-time project instead of adopting a children's facility, projects are availalbe on each individual country's website.
