"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."

James 1:27

Both Hands serves traditional Christian adoptive families and Orphan Care ministries

Our mission is founded in the words of James 1:27, which calls us to serve the widow and the orphan. All Both Hands projects serve a widow or widower while at the same time serving a vulnerable child, whether that’s through adoption or orphan care causes. Are you ready to answer that call? Let’s take a leap of faith, together.
