The first week of the new Hague convention has come and gone. We are planning to return to Guatemala to assist the orphanages with the additional children that we anticipate will be aggregating at the existing orphanages. We plan to be back in Guatemala shortly with people and resources and will be finalizing our partnership and support for the existing organizations.
Our first priority will be for the newborns and infants that are not cared for by their birth mothers. We plan to offer nutritional supplements in the form of baby formula for the foster mothers helping with newborns. We also intend to assist with foster homes for babies that had been planned to be adopted internationally and have now been delayed as well as some of the government-run orphanages which have very few resources.
We will attempt to quickly solicit donations of food, clothing, vitamins, and, of course, money. All donations should be made through and to Orphan Helpers out of Newport News, Virginia or call me, Jamie Waller, at 908-656-3915 or e-mail me, please. Thank you.
