About Us
Project Nic is a nonprofit that provides opportunities for people to live out the love of Jesus by caring for vulnerable children around the world. Through safe shelter, nourishing food, education, medical care, and faithful daily support, we seek to ensure that every child in our care has the opportunity to grow, heal, and thrive.
The children supported by Project Nic come from difficult backgrounds including war, HIV/AIDS, poverty, and exploitation. Through trusted shelter leaders and compassionate caregivers, these children are given stability, dignity, and the assurance that they are deeply valued.
Today, more than 270 children in shelters across five countries call Project Nic their safe place. Many have walked through loss, conflict, or hardship most of us can hardly imagine. At Project Nic, we meet them with hope, consistency, and the reminder that they are not forgotten.
Because of the generosity of our supporters, we continue to expand this mission—providing food, shelter, education, and medical care while declaring God’s greatness to the children we serve.
100% of donations go directly to supporting the children; no donations fund U.S. staff salaries or facilities. Project Nic is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
Shelters
India
In India, Project Nic is currently helping care for 15 boys in the shelter. Over time, our desire is to grow the shelter to the point that they are caring for both boys and girls. India also has a day center that helps care for 34 other children.
Myanmar
Project Nic currently operates two shelters in Myanmar, one with 115 children and the other with 30 children. The children that come to the shelter come from war torn families, and we are thankful for our staff that provides such good care in the midst of immense hurt.
Nepal
There are currently 16 children that we care for here and hope to continue growing. There are also 12 other children that we help care for and sponsor that live outside of the shelter. We are so excited to serve these children and the staff that work here.
Taiwan
In our Taiwan shelter, we have created a space to help children who live in disadvantaged areas succeed in education and to give them exposure to the bigger world. We currently have 34 children that attend this shelter.
Thailand
Our newest shelter, located in Thailand, marks Project Nic’s growing outreach into our sixth country of operation. This home provides safety, care, and the hope of a brighter future for children in need—continuing our mission to bring love and stability to vulnerable lives across the globe.
Our Story
The story of Project Nic started with a real orphan named Nic in the country of Taiwan and an adoption that took place more than a decade ago. Since then, God has allowed us to be a part of a beautiful story of adoption and the care of orphans around the globe. Watch this video from Pastor Jeff Funderburk to hear more about Project Nic.
