NPR: In Haiti Children Long for a Home
This boy, named Joseph, is recuperating from a broken femur following the earthquake in Haiti, in which he lost both his parents.
"Haiti is a country of children. Half the population is under 18 years old. And since the earthquake, it seems kids are everywhere — carrying water buckets, pushing wheelbarrows full of rubble, flying kites and playing with toy cars amid the tents that are now homes.
There also are many children who are alone, orphaned since the Jan. 12 quake that killed more than 200,000." Full story.
Stories like these are hard for me to read. If you could, would you open your home to one of these kids?
