The children of Shalom Orphanage standing by their repaired wall!

Without warning, a sound like thunder was heard at Shalom Orphanage…but no one could see a storm anywhere in sight. Everyone quickly ran to investigate. They were shocked: one of the walls to their home had completely collapsed! Thankfully, no one was inside at the time.

The director, Joshua, sent me the below photos and asked for Orphan’s Tear to help them rebuild, this time with better materials. I sent the money right away because I knew the children would soon be exposed to real, monsoon-season storms!

The eleven children living at Shalom Orphanage are so happy now that their building has been repaired (photo above)! They can now sleep safe and secure, knowing that they are protected from the wind and the rain.

On behalf of all at Shalom, I want to thank everyone who helped them repair their building through Orphan’s Tear Special Projects. The new repairs should now protect them for generations to come!

On behalf of the orphans,

Elisabeth Walter
Director, Orphan’s Tear division
