The goal of this project is to teach the children skills, such as proficiency in English, ground them in who they are in God’s eyes, and help them through some of the major challenges they may face as they grow older, such as drug addictions and being lured into human trafficking.
Art is one of the children attending the Saturday program. He is smart, full of potential, always smiling, and always willing to lend a helping hand. The very first week he attended the program he had very intense stomach pains. Some children who knew him said it was because he hadn’t had a proper meal in several days. He doesn’t have a mother or father to care for him, and hops from relative to relative with no one really looking out for his needs. The program directors are excited for the ways they can begin to work with Art and help him grow, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
