Last week I joined a bunch of our students along with my assistant for a morning of work at a local orphanage (they call them just that here). This facility, from what I understand, much nicer since the First Lady visited eight years ago, houses about 50 kids all under 3...who were abandoned for various reasons...cleft lip (though I only saw two), fathers wishing to remarry (yes, that a legitimate reason to drop off your kid), or families just unable to care for them....
We painted, swept, cut brush, turned soil...etc. etc...it was hard work but I'm glad I participated...the director is at my left...
