Thank you to everyone who supported the 2024 Children's Hope Dinner and the work of Orphan Outreach!
Together, we raised more than $700,000!
Your generosity will provide thousands of children around the world with life-changing care. And you are equipping Orphan Outreach to provide MORE care to MORE children in the future!
This year’s Children’s Hope Dinner was truly a celebration of hope. We were inspired by Tony Dungy, Scott Hanson, and Geoff Moore.
The Pogue Family Foundation was honored as the Mike Douris Children’s Hope Award recipient for its global impact on the lives of children and families, and Candace Stark received the Paula Hayes Service Award for her lifetime of volunteer service.
Thank you for the difference you continue to make in the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children around the world! You are indeed restoring hope!

Tony Dungy - Special Guest
Tony Dungy is a former professional football player and coach who became the first African American head coach to win the Super Bowl. After playing college ball for the University of Minnesota, Dungy played three seasons in the National Football League for the Pittsburgh Steelers and San Francisco 49ers. Beginning his coaching career in 1980, Dungy served as head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Indianapolis Colts. He guided the Colts to a Super Bowl victory in 2007, and is one of only four men in NFL history to win a Super Bowl as both a player and head coach, joining Mike Ditka, Tom Flores and Doug Pederson.
Since stepping down as head coach of the Colts, Dungy has worked as an analyst for NBC's "Football Night in America” and as spokesperson for the national fatherhood program, All-Pro Dad. Off the field, Dungy is also renowned as a best-selling author and for his contributions to the community – both for civic and charitable causes. A committed Christian, he and his wife, Lauren, have been married 41 years and have co-authored ten children’s books in addition to Uncommon Marriage and Uncommon Influence. They are the parents of 11 children and have fostered more than 100 children.
