Welcome to Open Home Foundation International (OHFI).

We are a New Zealand-based organisation working to protect and empower vulnerable children and their families around the world. We believe that every child in the world has the right to belong to a home, family and community where they are safe and loved; to receive a good diet, health care, and education; and to know that they are loved by God. We work in communities of all faiths and none.

Ohfi supports some of the world’s most impoverished, vulnerable, neglected and abused children. Here you can find out some of the many ways in which we serve.
