JULIE’S HEART: Where Hope Springs Eternal

Julie’s Heart” is a place where requests for help from around the world can be seen and heard. These are stories from missions not yet a part of Orchid’s full-time focus, but ones that have caught our attention. Our late co-founder, Julie Beliel, believed that the breath of hope needed to be shared as soon as the work was manifested, so we honor her dream by doing just that. You can be a part of these stories. Just open your heart and find your place in Julie’s.
