Programs described in its return (1)
- The organization fulfilled its commitment to end the orphan cycle through orphan care and prevention for 12 orphan children in our home. We were able to keep our 12 children on task with school work during the social violence and unrest of our city country including our special needs child. Care for the toddler in the home was also maintained as well as getting him to a better physical condition than when we took him. Although serving the remote village was too often unsafe we were able to find other ways of serving our local community such as providing summer camp for 80 children. They were able to be taught in sports and educational studies.
