How to Get Involved

  1. PRAYER: Please pray for the current and future children at the daycare. Pray that they will come to know Jesus Christ as their personal savior, and continue to live for Him when their time comes to leave the daycare. Also, please pray for the wisdom and guidance for the staff of the daycare.
  2. FINANCIAL SUPPORT: Anything helps! Monthly support is vital for this ministry to survive. Open Arms survives on people like you who give a little out of their pocket to help with the daily needs to run this ministry. The Mexican Government does not help with the financial burden of community services like this daycare. We are solely run by donations by individuals, churches, or businesses. You are our life line. We cannot keep families together without you. Please prayerfully consider becoming a prayer and financial supporter of this ministry.
  • Monthly Sponsorship: You can become a monthly sponsor of a child for as little as $25 a month. This support helps provide breakfast and lunch, pay the necessary bills to keep the daycare running, provide the funds for school expenses and any medical expense, as well as hire Mexican workers to care for the children. Open Arms needs eight monthly sponsors per child to provide the best care possible for the children.
  • Hero Sponsorship: You can become a hero for $100 a month. Open Arms needs only two heroes per child to provide all the necessary expenses need to care for a child.
  • General Fund: If you would rather contribute to our general fund you can do that as well. All donations are tax-deductible and go for taking care of the needy children of Mexico.
  • Building Fund: We are building a 6000 sq ft. building on the three properties OA purchased in 2008. This building allows us to expand our vision and will allow us to take in 30 more children. The building consists of a new kitchen and dinning room that will hold 60 kids and visiting mission groups. It has a new large playroom for the older kids. Upstairs we have a multi-purpose room where our monthly mother’s meetings will be held, our weekly children’s service will take place, it will also be used for the many events through out the year. Additionally, the second store will have a brand new office space, and two apartments for long term missionaries! We need $40,000 to finish the expansion and provide a playground for the kids too.Remember all donations are tax-deductible and a receipt can be given upon request.
