Women For Orphans

Women for Orphans International,
Enlarging a Legacy of Housing Age Out Foster Girls and their children.
Preventing Homelessness, Abuse and Trafficking.

The Vision

In 2011, Pastor Nina Tidwell heard the call to open a home for girls aging out of the foster care system. In 2015 they opened their first home for girls, and a boys home in 2023. To date, they have Rescued many girls and their children through the Legacy Housing Project in Florida. Recently the Lord has led Pastor Nina to Enlarge the Vision to provide Housing in Every City, Every State and All throughout the World, through our Women for Orphans Foundation.
1 Chronicles 4:10, “Enlarge my borders…”

25,000 Children age-out of foster care
in the United States every year.

Not Everyone Can Adopt, But Everyone Can Be A Part of Adoption: By Caring for the Orphans; those who have aged out of the foster care system.

Why they need Your Help: Love.
The state is Not a Family.
Many of these children Never had anyone say, “I LOVE YOU.” Many have Never had anyone Hug them. The Reason Why they are in the system is because they Never had a Mother or Father to Love and Care for them.

Together we can prevent homelessness, abuse and trafficking by providing free quality housing for at-risk aged out foster girls.

A New Family: Pastor Nina’s Story

Religion that God our Father accepts as Pure and Faultless is this: to look after orphans in their distress. James 1:27

Many of the children never had anyone say, “I Love You” Many have never had anyone to Hug them.
The reason why they are in the foster care system is because they never had a Mother or Father to Love and Care for them.

Children all over the World are in Need and we have a Responsibility as followers of Jesus to get involved in what God has called us to do. God loved all humanity that He sent His Son Jesus to “adopt” us back into the Family of God. Jesus understood adoption as his earthly father Joseph, was called by God the Father to Care for His Son; to raise him along with his wife Mary, to train him in the ways of the Lord.
Laying down our lives for those who need the Love and Care just as Jesus laid down His own Life for you, me and All humanity.

Pastor Nina’s Story: I remember while living in Arizona with my husband and our two boys, that I felt impressed in my heart to adopt. But like many, I talked myself out of it because of fear. This is quite common when people are approached with the notion of adoption. It wasn’t until years later that my heart began to soften, when the Lord Jesus spoke to my husband saying, “Open your Bible to Matthew 25:31-46” and when he did, the Lord said, “This is not a parable, this is not a story, this is going to happen one day.” Before this happened the Lord spoke to me during my drive home after hearing of a shelter for women and children, and their need for New clothes and toys. As I was driving in my car, I had the thought, “What if that were me?’ as my boys were quite young at the time, then another thought came to me, “Would I want someone there for me?” My immediate response was Yes! That is where my journey to care for women and children began. As we moved to Florida, the Lord led us start Ponce Church. Years later, after learning of a ministry in Texas that had a home for girls aging out of the foster care system, I knew then that is what I was to do! I was able to obey the Lord and Care for Orphans. I then shared it with my daughter-in-love, Brandi, who has had adoptions in her family, and when I did, she said, “I Love it!” Four years later we opened our first home for girls, and those with children through the Legacy Housing Project, and for the last 8 years, we have Rescued many girls and their children, and have recently opened our first home for boys. Recently the Lord has led me to Enlarge His Vision, through the Women for Orphans Foundation, and connect with Women all over the World to help purchase Homes for girls and their children, in every city, every state, and all throughout the World.”
