Since 1974, SFHA has changed the lives

of countless children, women, and communities in Crisis.

It began with The Ranch in San Cristobal, New Mexico, where we gave hundreds of orphaned children a safe home, an education, and a fresh start. Our work then took us to Sri Lanka, where we founded a school that SFHA still supports today. Here at home in Southern California, our family continues to walk alongside refugees, offering English classes, cultural education, and practical life skills as they build new lives for themselves and their families.

Our Vision

San Felipe Humanitarian Alliance is guided by a vision of a world free from poverty, discrimination, and violence, a world in which every person has equal and abundant opportunity to realize their full potential. We believe this vision cannot be achieved by world leaders and humanitarian organizations alone. It depends equally on the collective action of communities, families, and individuals working toward a common good.

Through our efforts, San Felipe Humanitarian Alliance seeks to inspire the shared commitment and personal responsibility that drive lasting change, advancing sustainable economic, social, and cultural development in communities around the world.

Our Commitment

San Felipe Humanitarian Alliance remains dedicated to championing the well-being of children and their families, both at home and abroad.

We pursue this mission through public education and advocacy, and by continuing to develop and support programs and organizations that create meaningful, lasting benefits for children and the families who care for them.
