About Us!
Sister Stan's Children is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) public charity charged with the mission of supporting Sister Stan Terese M. Mumuni and the Marian Sisters of Eucharistic Love (MASEL) in their efforts to build and operate an orphanage (Nazareth Home for God's Children) to care for the rejected "spirit children" of Northern Ghana who would otherwise be rejected or ritually killed. In this mission, this organization will participate in awareness building and education, in fund-raising, both individually and through grant-writing, and in tracking progress of building projects and keeping you informed. Contributions to SSC, Inc. are deductible under Section 170 of the code.
