About This Fundraiser

On Oct 17 I will be running a 5K for the orphans of Korea! While serving with Jerusalem Ministry this past year I met college students from childrens' homes who are part of the Oak Tree Project mentorship and scholarship program. As I sat in on one small group meeting with the veteran mentees they were testifying how they were so thankful and blessed by their mentors. They were testifying how God has transformed them and laughing about how different they are from when they first came into OTP. I am blessed to see God move powerfully through OTP and see these orphans grow stronger in the Lord. No matter how little you give, all your support with go to Oak Tree Project so please support in raising up these orphans to be mighty oaks of righteousness!

About Oak Tree Run 2015

On Saturday, October 17, 2015, Oak Tree Project will be partnering with a race for underprivileged children in Korea to raise funds for scholarships for orphans in South Korea. Orphans in Korea are on their own after they graduate from high school and many struggle to get by financially and emotionally. It is especially difficult for those who get into college who have to work while studying. The stress and loneliness leads to depression and desperation for many, which can lead to prostitution, joining gangs, or even suicide. Oak Tree Project is a scholarship and mentoring program designed to not just help the orphans have funds through college, but to also receive the emotional support and guidance they need to succeed. Our goal for this race is to raise $90,000 for our current 16 scholarship recipients ($6,000 per student). To find out more about the Oak Tree Project, please visit www.oaktreeproject.com.
