Kid's Home

The Saturday before Christmas, I went with some friends to a home for kids whose parents have been sent to prison. Because the parents are still (maybe) living, they are not able to receive the funds that a normal orphanage receives. We put together some gifts for the kids, as well as some staple foods (rice, flour, oil) and headed out to throw them a Christmas party!

  1. Hi Rachel! Happy New Year! I've enjoyed reading your blog and keeping updated on what you are up to. I noticed in these photos a Target bag - where did you get that since I know we don't have stores there. :O) Erin P

  2. ha, the Target bags came with visitors from the States. We save them and reuse them, and they bring back fond memories of home - yay Target!
