Either I can keep my child and when they’re older they’ll struggle with life just like I am, OR I can take my child to an orphanage and they’ll get three meals a day, an education, and a chance at a better life. That’s a choice no parent should ever have to make.
Benjamin House works to take away all the barriers that might keep a child from their family or tribe of origin so they can grow up learning what family looks like.
“If the school fees of the child or having enough food for the family is the challenge, we attempt to get sponsorship for that child so they can stay with their parents. If its a young teenage mother, we work with her to help her become the mother we know she can be, rather than her having to subject her child to a lifetime alone. In all our programs, self-sustainability plans are a must. We don’t simply want to put a bandage on the problem, we want to solve it at the root, and set these families up for long term life and success. It’s the hard route, but it is best.” (to learn more, click here)
