Caring. Sharing. Preparing.
Kidstown is where every child is loved and equipped to impact the world.
After traveling to Romania in the early 1990s, Hollander Hospitality founder, Mike Hollander, established Kidstown Romania for the purpose of raising money to expand the Bethesda Home, a children’s orphanage supporting abandoned children in Romania. Over the next several years, Kidstown grew to support ten homes in Romania. Kidstown helped local orphanages provide for children’s basic needs and give them opportunities for education. In 2005, the Kidstown team expanded their reach to India and Nepal, where the challenge of abandoned, orphaned, and children at risk is enormous. During the next ten years, Kidstown became aware of 40 additional homes that needed help to answer the call of caring for children. As of 2021, Kidstown International is helping to care for nearly 1,000 children living in 49 orphanages in Romania, India, and Nepal.
Take them in.
In a world of darkness and tragedy, there are children in need of help and hope. We see these children and work to bring them into a place of love and wholeness.
Give them a home.
A home that provides a safe and caring environment can change a child’s life. Our homes are more than a structure to live in, they are also a place of healing and loving support – A true family.
Give them hope.
We help them transform their pain by restoring their value and purpose. Each child is given a chance to move forward with hope as a loved human being.
