Our unique holistic approach is A Ring of Hope that each child will go through to ensure a self-sustainable life: Ensuring access to a sustainable source of drinkable water. Ensuring access to nutritious food sources. Ensuring access to shelter that is adequate and safe for their well being. Ensuring access to medical care. Ensuring access to educational instruction. Ensuring access to Vocational Training by partnering with professionals and linking with necessary resources. __ A note from our President Jamie Jockwig: ”I believe that given the right resources, opportunities and support, every child will strive to grow up to be happy, healthy and have an impact on the world around them. So often orphaned children worldwide expend all their energy and their limited resources on survival, not on success. In all my travels around the world, one thing has always stood out to me. Children remain resilient, hopeful and opportunistic until the last possible moment. While it won’t be possible to protect and secure a future for every child, I believe we have the invitation, opportunity and responsibility to seek out vulnerable children longing for a chance, and help pave a way for them to take it.” - Jamie https://aringofhope.org/baraka-orphanage daily 0.75 2020-11-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1601233667650-A75DMNEFCBOFBRWD22CE/Jamie+and+Charles.JPG Baraka Orphanage - Jamie Jockwig and Charles Juma https://aringofhope.org/board-of-directors daily 0.75 2025-08-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/429fbe15-f9d0-42d1-b3ec-6704176d9f40/Jamie+Close+Up+B%26W+-+High+Res.jpg Board of Directors - Jamie Jockwig, President and Treasurer Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

Seeing the good in others comes naturally and abundantly to her, and she aspires to complete an education path that will allow her to attain even more skills for helping others. For now, she exercises her abilities with her two daughters; and is helping them grow into future helpers and change-makers. She views her seat on the board of A Ring of Hope not only as an opportunity, but as a privilege. It is her belief that every person has the right to have their basic needs met and should have the opportunities to experience their full potential. Her desire is to see A Ring of Hope make those rights a reality for as many people as possible. https://aringofhope.org/donate daily 0.75 2020-10-25 https://aringofhope.org/privacy-policy daily 0.75 2020-10-27 https://aringofhope.org/partnerships daily 0.75 2021-01-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1610329003161-4DRF47GE710HC1MX38I2/shutterstock_680729236.jpg Partnerships https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1610420828080-1N2ZBLA3PQYL47DM9DAT/IMG-9355.jpg Partnerships https://aringofhope.org/kenyan-student-school-fees daily 0.75 2022-08-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660528943475-SWKZWMAIKY4NOF5FU6GK/b1a4982d-bbbb-4ed1-9785-32ad56523f36.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660528986912-R1EJUNF97M8QZEFSZUGR/fd48fd5b-48ef-4561-a411-5472e4174318.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660528963823-X45ZVT2L7GBSB3V71BVS/eba58f65-238e-43b2-9312-8f5704fc969e.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660529152711-Q7UHU4AQSUMTRUTZCTXD/fc04b723-e29f-4bbe-a9b1-1d3912a8fcb4%2B%25281%2529.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660623542992-T9547HCELT2DAQQNEDM0/d952577a-86dc-49bc-ab68-b03ecb56cc4f.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660623578661-2K1Z7GOJ0AJKHDO3ZZWK/4c65d832-3e8b-437b-82b0-620320e2519c.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660623603518-GDRC89CGHBP3JXJGX03U/1b397ab7-abf5-4fec-817b-55b15c4fc65f.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660623634134-F74Y33M0WR4SUYBPA2NB/1a76c876-b001-451b-a49e-298f5c59674d.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6e8cd73abc6b09d29e1e9e/1660623654601-N3EB2C68QA8JXR8WKSDR/e3c00dad-7fd2-49ac-84e2-f820eac73c47.jpg Kenyan Student School Fees
