Making a difference... one child at a time
We are Blessing the Children International, a global community that believes every child deserves a chance in life. We're breaking the cycle of poverty for orphans and widows in Ethiopia, Africa through education, love, care, coaching and real change in their lives and in the generations that follow.
Lasting Change
We are impacting the lives of Ethiopia's most vulnerable children with a mission to send them forth to create change within their country.
Feeding Program
We feed hundreds of meals to hungry and impoverished children each week through our breakfast and lunch feeding programs. We also provide grain support to keep their bellies full at home.
Medical Care
We provide routine medical checkups, vitamins, vaccinations, and access to advanced medical care to ensure the health and wellbeing of the children in our care.
Education
We educate more than 2,000 students each year at our school, the BCI Academy. Opening our doors in 2009 , we sent our first University Graduates into the workforce in 2018.
Join us in Ethiopia
The children of Ethiopia struggle with the basics of life in ways that are difficult to imagine until you've seen it first-hand. Giving of yourself in ministry will change your life and the lives of those you touch. No special skills are required - just a heart to serve.

"Blessing the Children is doing the work of the ministry and it is working! You can literally see the difference in the children enrolled in the BCI program and those on the streets and in the neighborhoods. The BCI children appear healthier, better nourished, better clothed, happier!"
