![]() | ![]() | The Greatest Humanitarian Disaster of Our Time Who is caring for these orphans? Extended family members, often aging grandparents, are left to care for many orphans. This overwhelming financial burden makes the task of caring for and educating the orphans almost impossible. Often, entire families of children are trying to make it all alone. They struggle to grow their own food, and often, instead of going to school, work long hours at backbreaking jobs for pennies. Precious lives hang in the balance Most of these children are not infected with HIV/AIDS; however, they are malnourished or sick, and vulnerable to exploitation. Every day is a struggle for survival. Older siblings are forced to drop out of school in order to take care of younger siblings. These innocent children, still grieving over the loss of their parents, are forced to function as adults. | |||||||||||||||||
