It is no new concept that changing the way and the environment in which children are raised is the key to changing the future of a community, city, country, or the world. Bolivia, a third-world country in South America, depends on its children to create a better and brighter future. Unfortunately, many of the children of Bolivia are orphaned and abandoned. Consequently, these children are forced to worry more about their basic survival skills than the skills needed to grow into responsible and compassionate future leaders of their country.
"Kory Wawanaca" (Golden Children) Children's Home is a residential and cultural center being established to provide a loving home for orphaned and abandoned children. All the children will be given the opportunities to grow in their appreciation of their indigenous language and culture, and in their understanding of agricultural and environmental knowledge. Residents of this home will be challenged to share their culture in creative and imaginative ways, and to eventually grow into empowered adults who see themselves as persons who can truly transform the society in which they live.
This children's home is a national project of the Bolivian United Methodist Church and is in its beginning and most crucial phase. If you feel called to give go to "How Can I Help".
