Children’s Cup was founded in 1992 by long time missionaries - Dave and Jean Ohlerking. God gave them a dream to reach out to hurting and forgotten children in the hard places of the world to offer them hope. As Dave would say, “Hope’s name is Jesus.”

This vision has led Children’s Cup to focus heavily on southern Africa and Latin America where poverty is tearing apart families, communities, and even entire nations. Our goal is to help children to grow to be holistically healthy and to give them hope in Jesus that will enable them to become world changers!
