My Nonprofit Reviews

We had the privilege of spending the day at this JOY filled property filled with the happiest children we have ever met. Their smiles, snuggles, and love were contagious. It was our first visit to an orphanage and it blew our minds how joyful a home could be. We were expecting a very different experience. The beautiful atmosphere is created by the staff, specifically Jerry and Gris, who are the father and mother to all the children. Their way of raising the children, like they were their own, is beautiful to see. All of the children call Jerry "Dad" and Gris "Mom". They are forever giving hugs to him all day. And, almost as soon as we arrived, we were also given never-ending hugs! What's even more amazing is that the 12 children play all day with each other and they never fuss or fight. It's incredible to see how they get along so well and care for each other. There is no whining. The children are taught to complete chores as well, helping with cooking, cleaning, dishes, laundry. The house has the perfect balance of schedule, balance, and freedom. Also, the property is AMAZING and the yellow house BOLDY YELLS, "HAPPY". The trees are dropping fresh mangos and avocados. The trees provide shade and a host for enjoyment of every kind. The lawn was large enough for a futbol match and the view of the lake is calming, a total sense of serenity. It's beautiful to experience this paradise and all that is invested in these precious children. Go and visit... it will be life changing.
