For over 21 years, Heart for Kids team members have stepped out in faith, bringing hope and love to vulnerable children. Every journey is different—each volunteer comes with their own gifts, experiences, and a willingness to serve. But one thing remains the same: lives are changed, both for the children and for those who go.

These stories are real. They capture the moments of joy, the challenges faced, and the deep connections formed. They remind us that even the smallest acts of kindness—a smile, a shared game, a listening ear—can leave a lasting impact.

These personal accounts, the first, from Ying, offers a glimpse into the incredible transformation that happens—not just in the lives of the children, but also in the hearts of those who go.

Then Rachel shares her life changing experience of love, impact and transformation in China and India. And 

David’s story gives a very different personal perspective.

Explore these heartfelt stories and witness the power of love in action. More stories from the heart will follow from team members, sponsors and supporters.

We hope these stories inspire you to see how small acts of service can ripple into something far greater.
