30 Hearts
30 Hearts is a nonprofit providing family-based care for orphaned and vulnerable children in Ethiopia.
Millions of children in Ethiopia have been orphaned or abandoned due to poverty and disease. These children often struggle to survive without food, clean water, or shelter. Many children end up on the streets and become vulnerable to human trafficking, abuse, trauma or child labor. 30 Hearts partners with local nonprofits in Ethiopia to provide holistic, residential care for orphaned and vulnerable children. We build and operate Family Development Centers where children are raised by Ethiopian women in multiple homes. We empower children to rise out of poverty while demonstrating the love of Jesus through the love of a family.
OLIVIA BURNS
Olivia is a soprano from Richmond, VA. Currently a senior at Baldwin Wallace University, she cherishes every opportunity to tell stories as a singing-actress, whether through opera, oratorio, or musical theater. She is equally passionate about vocal science, and her long-term goal is to pursue vocology as well as performance. Performance credits include Tolomeo in Baldwin Wallace’s production of Giulio Cesare, Damigella in L’incoronazione di Poppea, Kate McGowan in Titanic the Musical, and chorus in Le Nozze di Figaro and the Pirates of Penzance. She is especially grateful to her beloved classmates, professors, family, and friends for their endless support and to Jesus from whom all blessings flow.
