Your Kindness Changes Lives Forever!
“Please care for my children!”
This was the plea of Rose*’s mother as she lay on her deathbed. Sadly, within days she died. And then, a few weeks later, Rose’s father passed away.
Rose and her three brothers were already familiar with suffering. Living in extreme poverty, they watched their parents struggle to provide life’s basic necessities - nutritious food, warm clothes, medical care, and education. And now they were orphans. Fear overwhelmed these young children as they found themselves all alone.
But the final plea of Rose’s mother to City of Hope did not fall on deaf ears. Our staff quickly rescued Rose and her brothers. Once again, they had a family that loved them!
Rose quickly made friends at City of Hope, and a beautiful smile soon replaced her serious expression.
She is now in second grade at our school and eager to learn! A budding artist, she also enjoys dancing and singing. She joined the church choir and also attends the weekly prayer meeting. Rose is so happy that she and her brothers can stay together, and they love their new home!
This is what City of Hope is all about: rescuing children from hopelessness and despair, meeting their needs, providing education and training that will empower them to thrive - and letting them know they have a Heavenly Father who will never leave them!
