What a blessing the Miracle Foundation is!!! On so many levels - helping orphans in under-served populations of India, helping their communities and surrounding low-income families, providing jobs and places for WOMEN of all ages, rank and background who are traditionally not empowered, and most of all, providing a way for the rest of us to feel like we are helping and can be of service in this world. This last is incredibly important - Miracle Foundation organizes and leads groups of Americans to live and work in the actual children's homes - getting to them in rural India is challenging in and of itself but then to be there living with the children in their space, surrounded by so much, both good and bad all at once is just soul-expanding.
