Health
Children with healthy bodies and minds are a gift from God to the world.
They grow, dream, reach for, believe in, and achieve better things; but not every child is healthy. Sometimes the circumstances are beyond anyone’s control, such as ill health caused by disease or accidents. But too many times, children are unhealthy because they’re hungry. Hunger makes learning difficult and drastically reduces a child’s opportunities, quality of life, and even lifespan.
Other children are unhealthy because of unhealed mental trauma. Family violence, exploitation, and grinding poverty steal a child’s vitality and joy—even their desire to live. ALO has promised to help such children find mental and spiritual healing as well as physical health.
Asia’s Little Ones responds to critical health and survival needs by caring for children and families in moments of vulnerability.
Through emergency relief, winterization efforts, and ongoing community support, these projects provide essentials like food, warmth, and safe spaces for children to grow.
Whether responding to natural disasters, equipping life centers in remote regions, or helping families endure extreme climates, each initiative reflects a commitment to protecting life, restoring hope, and strengthening communities across the Asia Pacific.
