Creating Lasting Impact

Since its founding in Guatemala in 1992 and Costa Rica in 1995, Homes of Life has served as an international, faith‑based NGO dedicated to protecting and restoring at‑risk children. As a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit as of June 2025, the organization ensures donor support is stewarded responsibly, measuring impact through daily care outcomes, child stability, reunification progress, and long‑term well‑being. Every gift directly sustains life‑changing, on‑the‑ground care where it is needed most.

Homes of Life:

  • Operates residential children’s homes (Hogar de Vida) in Costa Rica and Guatemala
  • Provides daily care including housing, food, education, medical care, and psychological support
  • Employs caregivers, teachers, nurses, psychologists, and administrative staff
  • Partners with government child protection agencies (such as Costa Rica’s PANI) to care for children removed from unsafe environments
  • Hosts mission teams and long‑term volunteers who assist with caregiving, maintenance, outreach, and operations
