Children first
Every decision starts with the question: is this good for the child in front of us?
About us
Hearts 4Kids Inc is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit caring for vulnerable children and families in El Triunfo, Ecuador.
Hearts 4Kids began with a simple conviction: children living in poverty should not have to face it alone. Today that conviction takes shape in El Triunfo, Ecuador, where our center is a steady place children can count on for a meal, help with school, care when they are sick, and adults who know their names.
Poverty in the community shows up in many ways — missed meals, untreated illness, school interrupted by the cost of supplies, families stretched past their limits. Rather than address one symptom, we work across all of them: sponsorship, food, medical care, educational support, and classes and programs that give children and youth somewhere good to belong.
The organization is registered in the United States as Hearts 4Kids Inc, a 501(c)(3) public charity with EIN 47-4834211, and administered from Mercedes, Texas. The work itself is carried out day to day in Ecuador.

Every decision starts with the question: is this good for the child in front of us?
Our work happens through a center in El Triunfo, led alongside local staff and volunteers who know the community.
Children thrive when families are supported, so our programs reach parents and youth too.
As a 501(c)(3) public charity we take seriously our responsibility to use every gift carefully.
