Helping Children in Argentina Grow to be Happy, Healthy, and Productive

Argentina Children's Network was established to help children in need in the country of Argentina become all they can through the lens of the Christian faith. The organization focuses on improving the living conditions, family environment, mental and physical health, education, and happiness of these children.

In Batan, Pastor Octaviano Sarmiento and his wife, Suzanna, care for orphaned and abandoned children of all ages. They also provide shelter to women and their children who have experienced domestic violence.

Jann Lardo and her husband, Horacio, became inspired to create Argentina Children's Network once they sensed the hand of God touching the lives of these children.

Jann is the president of Argentina Children's Network. Since 2008, she and Horacio have helped shelter, nourish, and care for these children so they will become productive and faith-directed adults. They spend time with the children during the months of January, February, and March, mentor the older children, and provide stress education and career path choices with an emphasis on tutoring, literacy, computer, and English language skills.
