Living Tree Orphanage is located in an apartment complex utilizing a number of apartment suites to shelter and care for special needs children. We met with Ms. Tina and toured the facility. I am in awe of the care provided for the children and the resulting development of each child.
After our initial visit, we went to lunch at another fantastic local restaurant with Steve and his wife Sin Hwa. Steve and Sin Wha are the founders of Living Tree. Sin Wha works at the orphanage. Steve manages contracts and raises funds for Living Tree. Later, some of us will work at one of his projects, a rural property being developed as a permanent home for the children that serves as a retreat for families with special needs children. There they can meet with other children like them in an environment of caring.After our lunch meeting we went to the Qili International Hotel and checked in. Then divided into two groups. Karen, Elizabeth, Kathy, Vicki and Brett went back to Living Tree to work with the children, assisting the caregivers. Louie, Issac, Bill, Art, Sandi and I Followed Steve to the rural property.
Pictures to be posted later.
