The following testimony is from a woman that grew up in two government run orphanages in Bolivia, and shows why it’s so important that Daughters of the King Orphanage can become a reality.
“…I only know that I ended up in a public orphanage…a home with very unfavorable conditions for childhood, I remember that I was in this place for a short time. There, the children had to survive however we could from the aggressions of the educators and from the same children that were older than us. This is where I met a friend who still is to this day. I remember that she defended me against the rest of the kids and when I was scared of the dark, we joined our beds together and slept together. When we were hungry, we helped the educators to calm the crying of the babies in order to earn a hard bread….Suddenly, one day, with approximately 20 children, we were put into a car and taken to another place, a place that was my home for the next 13 years. Thirteen years that perhaps I would have liked not to live.
We are still in need of partners to make Daughters of the King Orphanage a reality. Will you consider partnering with us for $20 or more? If you would like to know how, visit our Give link.
