I would like to nominate The Fold Orphanage in the Limpopo region of south Africa for this award. Founded and run by Paul & Micky Prince, they are meeting the needs of a growing number of children in the bush of South Africa. They presently have two homes occupied by eight children and a house mother each, and another home to open in the near future. Their goal is to eventually have eight homes on the property, which they purchased themselves. The Princes are from the U.S. and have devoted the remainder of their lives to the mission of helping the helpless children of S. Africa. My husband and I have personally visited this orphanage on a recent trip to South Africa. It was very evident that their heart was in the right place--they do a great job of making their needs known to those in the States and also in-country and have a constant stream of volunteers coming to help on a short-term basis. In fact, I was so moved after our visit that I am now preparing and mentoring a former student of mine to possibly go to South Africa this summer on a short-term missions trip to The Fold. I heartily recommend The Fold of South Africa for any awards/financial assistance you may be able to render. Please don't hesitate to contact me for future references or if you have questions.
