Years ago, after the passing of her father and before Restoring Hope implemented our family-based care model of orphan care, Bayani* joined our children’s home called Ketama* Home. There she found the stability, love, care, and educational support she desperately needed.

Today, Bayani is fulfilling the promise she made to her late mother: She is in her final year of earning her a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Nursing at a local college. This promised kept very likely would not have been possible without the support of Restoring Hope’s network of care.

And this past August, we celebrated another beautiful new chapter for Bayani: a wedding! Having spoken to her husband and mother-in-law before the wedding about finishing her studies, she entered her marriage with their full support. Bayani is now happily wed and continues to pursue her life-transforming education.

We rejoice how her community of support, her faith, and her academic dedication—all nurtured by the generosity of Restoring Hope’s donors—have led her to this joyful milestone.
