Fang ShanTraining Center

Construction on our fourth facility, another Orphan Training Center, is progressing well after delays related to the Beijing Summer Olympics.  We will start off with 30 to 40 orphans.  Here is a short list of items we must have to bring Fang Shan into operation:

	Kitchen equipment		Vehicles
	Cafeteria equipment		Desks
	Furniture		Computers
	Beds and bedding		Playground equipment

A grand opening ceremony was held on October 12, 2008 at our fourth orphan training center at Fang Shan, located south of Beijing.   Over 400 people attended the event, including government officials and community leaders.   

This location is dedicated to staff training, orphan training in traditional Chinese performing arts, and rehabilitation for disabled children. 

Presently, there are seven children at this facility, which has the capacity to house up to 100 orphans. Two of these children are survivors of the Sichuan earthquake.  We are in the process of selecting more children to live here.

 

 

I want to be part of the exciting work being done in Fang Shan for China's orphans!

Fu Zhou Living Hope Children's Home

The move from two floors of the government orphanage to our new five-story building nearby for the children in our care in Fu Zhou is scheduled for February 2009.  We are all very excited to move the children and their caregivers into family-style apartments that will provide a safe and loving environment - the home these children have never known.

I want to help with the final phase of the Fu Zhou Building Project!
