With your help, orphan boys and many additional orphan girls can benefit from the loving care provided by the Sisters at the Nazareth Orphanage.
SIGN UP TO VOLUNTEER
The Sisters’ work at Nazareth Orphanage is tireless, enduring, and quite simply— extraordinary.
Help Build the girls orphanageFour Saturdays during the school year, OFNO volunteers travel to Nazareth Orphanage in Tecate, Mexico, to participate in a day of work alongside the children and Sisters. The daylong trips begin early morning and volunteers return to San Diego that same day. Volunteers help with maintenance and upgrade projects such as painting, repairs, and minor construction on campus.
Our trips for the next school year are scheduled for January 9, 2021 (Angel Project) and March 20, 2021. (Note: trips may be canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Please check our Website often for updated information.)
NOTE: As a result of the ongoing pandemic, our trip planned for November 14, 2020, has been reluctantly cancelled. The latest information is that all non-essential travel to Mexico has been restricted by the Center for Disease Control because of the COVID-19 crisis. In general, these restrictions have been renewed every 30 days since August. As a result, we will be unable to travel to the orphanage in November. After the border reopens, the Board will assess the needs of the orphanage and the safety of the volunteers to determine how we will proceed in the future. We are hopeful that we will be able to travel safely again soon.
Every January, OFNO travels to Nazareth Orphanage for a day to celebrate the Epiphany. Volunteers bring Three Kings’ Day (Christmas) gifts to the orphans and Sisters.
