C: Is for the care of children

Orphans International was created in response to the crisis facing children around the globe today. With the AIDS epidemic, natural disasters, low world health standards, and immense poverty, Orphans International operates with a mission to confront the incredible demand for improved opportunities to benefit the world's disadvantaged. Their goal of "Raising Global Citizens" takes a sustainable approach to addressing the immediate needs of these orphaned children. Helping orphaned or abandoned children grow into solid citizens of the world through a sound structure leads to many paths up the mountain, because there is but one race - the human race. Attempting to instill an appreciation in children of both modern technology and traditional arts and crafts they are dedicated to the development of intellectual curiosity and artistic achievement. Associated with the Department of Public Information of the United Nations they are headquartered in New York City. Peter Yarrow will be hosting a benefit to be held in his home Tuesday, October 30. Only 90 tickets exist, 20 of them already sold. Peter Yarrow is best known for his part in Peter, Paul & Mary, however it is his global tolerance-training project for children in conflict, Operation Respect, that makes him the perfect match for Orphans International. To be invited to this special event write info@oiww.org for an electronic invitation.

Though I believe we abandon the children of America the sad F.A.C.T is their are children from other countries that need help. This organization cares and that is a refreshing F.A.C.T.
