Displaced children under the care of HHHO.

After the earthquake, HHHO took in 24 displaced children.  Most of the children were orphaned in the earthquake.  All of them found themselves homeless with no family or friends to care for them.  HHHO is currently providing food, clothing, shelter, medical care, and schooling.  We have rented a building in Aquin for the children to call home for now.  Please help us provide a long term solution for these children by sponsoring these children.  Click here to see the children in their HHHO sponsored home.  If you are interested in sponsoring a child, click here.
