Serving the orphaned, vulnerable and disabled.

Our Work

Cadaniño serves orphaned, vulnerable and disabled children in Guatemala through spiritual formation, educational reinforcement and family strengthening programs at our community centers located in their neighborhoods as well as in orphanages where they live.

At our centers students come in three times a week for three hours, each day they receive an hour of Bible study or values classes, an hour of computer classes and an hour of tutoring and educational reinforcement.

Bags of veggies for the families we serve, donated by our church. By the time I arrived we only had 45 minutes to bring everything in and process and bag it up. Thankfully parents of the families we serve came to help and we were able to get it all bagged up and cleaned up just before the kids started rolling in. #cadaniño #wearestillbusy #servingothers #noonegoeshungry

Earlier this morning, waiting at our church, Casa de Libertad, to receive a donation of vegetables for our most needy families. We have a tight schedule most days, so I was waiting for the truck to arrive so I could pick up our portion and rush the veggies over to our center to process and divide them up in 45 minutes before the afternoon group of kids arrive. #cadaniño #wearestillbusy #servingothers #noonegoeshungry #cdl

Students enjoying a nutritious meal before classes

Students enjoying a nutritious meal before classes during our vacation course. Special thanks to Orphan Outreach and Women for Orphans Worldwide for their funding to setup the kitchen, hire a cook and supply the food. Eating at least one nutritious meal a day has a big impact on a child's growth and development. #Cadaniño #orphanoutreach #wow #missionarytim #guatemala

Descansando en Dios/Resting in God!
It was a blessed morning getting away from our normal hectic schedule of serving others, to be able to rest, receive, be encouraged, prayed over and motivated.

Our first day of vacation classes was a success!
