Orphans and abandoned children are in desperate need of care. Over 140 million children under the age of 18 have lost one or both of their parents. Some parents are unable to care for their children or are pressured by government regulations to abandon their offspring. With no one to provide shelter or care, orphaned children are often left to wander the streets and scavenge for food. The lucky ones will be admitted to local orphanages — modest buildings often suffering from understaffing and disrepair. Many of these orphaned and abandoned children become undernourished and will not receive an education. They will grow up without ever feeling loved.
