Coptic Orphans is a non-profit organization founded in 1989 with the goal of the long-term development of the physical and intellectual well being of orphans in Egypt. The organization was conceived when the Executive Director, Nermien Riad, was in Cairo during a two-year tour of duty with the U.S. government. During her stay, she was invited to visit an orphanage in Egypt. The children's living conditions and abject poverty overcame her and she became determined to make a personal impact to improve their conditions. Upon returning to the US, she began collecting and sending funds to Egypt on a limited scale to the orphanage, and began to lay the foundations for an organization with a Mission and Philosophy solely devoted to the purpose of helping children. As opposed to a short-term relief organization, Coptic Orphans focuses on the long-term needs of the children-spirituality, physical, economic, and social-through programs that provide both tangible and intangible benefits.
