It's hard to believe that situations like that existed here less than a century ago!

Thank you for sharing a little about your father, Maureen.

Thank you for a well-written and inspiring post. How proud you must be of your father's work on behalf of these children. My late father was orphaned when he was four and became a ward of the state; in 1920, that meant being "farmed out" to work, literally. In America, orphans as young as he was then have it better in the 21st Century; in countries in Africa, the conditions remain beyond what we might imagine (I saw poverty in South Africa when I was there in the late '90s that went well beyond anything I'd seen in Appalachia). To know that every penny you contribute goes to benefit the children is welcome news.
