Yonel, a Hard-working Husband and Father!
Yonel… We found Yonel in the mountains, during a Mobile Clinic! His grandmother brought him to us. He had been starved and abused by older kids and those in his neighborhood. We never thought he could make it home, to our orphanage. He had Marasmus Malnutrition. It was a long[…]

Future Math Teacher, Mackenson!
When I first saw Mackenson in the arms of his father, I thought, “Surely this toddler will die.” But, I was “more than shocked” when I found out that this “toddler” was seven years old! Malnutrition had stolen many years already. We had to bring him back to Fond Parisien[…]
