Join Our Story of Hope
Our children have names and stories. They have experienced loss and heartache. But most importantly they have hope and dreams because they have you. Become the voice of our children.
Preserving Families
We believe in families. Our community programs are focused on family preservation because healthy families create healthy children.
Caring for Orphans
All children desire a loving home. When families are disrupted, many children find themselves in orphanages. Join us as we serve the children of Guatemala's orphanages.
Transforming Lives
Our home is full of potential-future teachers, doctors, and business owners. The possibilities are endless because we believe in the dreams of each child. Be part of the transformation.
Passionately Serving the
World’s Forgotten Children
Doing good and making a difference in the lives of orphans around the world really is easy. All it takes is choosing to get involved. Our orphan care home in Guatemala City provides a loving, stable family to orphans who may otherwise be forgotten.
When I was looking for an organization to support I looked for one that I could stand behind. My criteria was Guatemala, Christ-based loving environment, orphanage. My search led me to Forever Changed International. We have a beautiful daughter that we were blessed to bring home from Guatemala when she was very young. We could help one child in this tangible way but beyond that wasn’t realistic for us. By joining forces with Forever Changed International it allows us to ensure that more children have the ability to be in a safe, loving environment being taught skills and about life that could influence their ability to become successful adults. And getting reports is such a blessing to us and our daughter as well.

Everyone at Dorie's Promise is so welcoming. The love of Jesus is so clearly demonstrated through each of the staff members in the way that they care for the children, relate to one another, and welcome missions teams.

Dorie's Promise is an amazing place. I have had the privilege of getting to know the kids I sponsor and have seen first-hand the positive change and growth in their lives brought about in the loving, nurturing environment at Dorie's Promise. Additionally, the opportunity to get out into the Guatemalan communities to experience the culture and see the hard realities that many in Guatemala endure is life-changing. When our mission team delivered a water filter to a family in a rural area the father said to us "God has not forgotten my family". You might think you are going to Guatemala to help others but you will be blessed beyond measure to partner with Forever Changed and the Dorie's Promise staff in Guatemala.”

While the kids and mothers we met at Dorie's Promise will always have a special place in our hearts, we'll also never forget our experiences in your local community: playing soccer and being treated to a meal by the residents of (please add the name of the hillside ghetto near the soccer fields) -and- installing water basins and delivering food to families near the garbage dump. These were impactful experiences for each member of our family. Your ministry and devotion to these children and your community is God-honoring.

Forever Changed is truly impacting lives in Guatemala and forever changing the hearts of those teams that travel and serve with them. This is a jam-packed, emotionally draining and spiritually exhilarating week. Immersing ourselves into the lives of the beautiful children of Dories Promise, the service projects in the desperately needy rural communities, and serving alongside the amazing Pastor Mercedes at her city dump food ministry left us aching to return. Our team and our new Guatemalan friends laughed, served, worshipped and cried together the entire week and came home a bit changed forever."
