14 year old Lovely was born to a mentally ill, poor mother. They never had a house, and she never got to attend school. After the earthquake, her mother's illness became worse, and friends removed Lovely from her mother's care and brought her to the Orphanage. It took Lovely her more than a year to settle into the orphanage, but now she's thriving. Lovely is in special classes to help her learn to read, write, and catch up with her classmates. With your help, her future will be bright.
Children like Lovely are very vulnerable in Haiti. There isn't a social safety-net in place to care for them. If it hadn't been for the orphanage, she would probably have wound up living on the streets. But the orphanage can only care for her because donors like you chose to give.
Lovely is a healthy, bright young woman. With your help, we'll be able to keep giving her the nutritious food, safe home, and health care she needs to keep thriving!
Moving kids like Lovely into a secure home gives them a real chance to grow into tomorrow's leaders.

Every microproject is intended to use the donations it receives in accordance with its stated description; however, it is important to provide project leaders with the flexibility to maximize the potential benefit from the donations they receive. This means that your donation may be used as a part of the main project that supports this microproject, specifically Provide a safe home for Haitian Orphans. In this event, the project leader is required to post an update to the microproject detailing the results and reasons behind this change.
If you or any other donor is unhappy with the way their funds have been used, he or she can reallocate their donation using the GlobalGiving guarantee.
Combined with other sources of funding, this project raised enough money to fund the outlined activities and is no longer accepting donations.
