At REAP, we believe that every child deserves a safe place to grow, to be nurtured, and to be known. That’s why our Springbuds homes exist.
We provide stability and care for children who have been abandoned, neglected, or caught in situations where their families can’t care for them right now or even into the future.
Thanks to your support, we’re not just providing meals and shelter but we’re offering the love of Jesus, quality education, and a community where each child is seen and valued. Today, we want to introduce you to a few of the children who’ve recently joined our Springbuds family.
Meet Tsongtsa
Tsongtsa is six years old and comes from Noklak, a remote part of Nagaland. His parents are divorced, and he was living with his father, who struggled to care for him and his siblings. With no stable support system, Tsongtsa was brought to Springbuds, where he now has a warm bed, nutritious meals, and a place to play and learn. He’s already showing signs of joy and security as he settles into the home.
Meet Keren
At just six years old, Keren has already experienced deep uncertainty. She is from the Karbi tribe. Her father disappeared without a trace, leaving her mother to care not only for Keren but also for her in-laws, all without any source of income. When our caretaker, Archim, heard about Keren’s situation, she reached out to us. Now Keren is thriving in our care. Her smile is contagious, and she’s quickly made friends in her new environment.
Meet Asila
Asila is the youngest of this group—just four years old. She comes from the Tikiri tribe in Nagaland. After her parents divorced, she was sent to live with relatives at the age of two. Despite their best efforts, her relatives couldn’t provide the care she needed. Now, Asila is a Springbud and she is receiving the attention and affection she deserves.
Meet Hevishe
Hevishe recently celebrated his 7th birthday. He is from the Sumi tribe of Nagaland. His father passed away, and his mother, who is illiterate, depends on sporadic daily-wage work to survive. With no steady income, she couldn’t afford to raise both of her sons. While his older brother remains in their village, Hevishe was brought to Springbuds after his mother and relatives approached pur team for help. Now, he has a new beginning filled with hope and opportunity.
Your Generosity Makes This Possible
Each of these children carries a unique story, shaped by hardship but is now being rewritten with hope. Your giving allows us to say “yes” when a child needs help, a safe home, nourishing meals, and education that can shape their future.
We’re praying for more partners who will walk alongside us in this journey.
