"The Oak Tree Project" is a scholarship fund designed to help orphans in Korea to go to university. These children will get no government supports after turning 18, and they are on their own. The orphanage will help them find jobs and places to live, but the challenges they will face may leave them more susceptible to trafficking and exploitation.

Let us keep these kids away from human trafficking. To find out more information about the Oak Tree Project, please visit their website at: http://www.oaktreeproject.com/

“Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. “Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. <Matthew 6:1-4>
