A Fun Ceremony...

September 13, 2013

Friday the 13th was a good day for us.  We had a ceremony at "Little Pearl Day Care" to celebrate the donations that Deseret International Charity gave to this handicapped day care to help them care for these special children and to help train them in mobility and how to feed and take care of themselves.

In Mongolia usually both parents need to work to be able to make ends meet and to feed their families. When they have a handicapped child, that means that one parent usually has to stay home to take care of that child.  The owner of "Little Pearl" has a handicapped daughter and decided she would start a day care to help other parents in her situation.  She tries to keep the price down and the parents come in and help when they can.

Deseret International Charities provided the child size wheelchair, and the yellow wheelchair stroller that you see in the background.  They also provided exercise balls, trampoline and other mobility and therapy equipment.

Deseret International Charities also provided the two fridges that you see in the background plus some cooking equipment.

Some of the children and Staff of Little Pearl Day Care. I was impressed of how well the children are taken care of.  Also how clean the facility was.  They truly love the children.  I am impressed with Mongolia and how they care for their children, they do treat them like 'precious pearls!'

Thank you!
