Today after school we visited a group foster home. It's not an orphanage, but these kids have been taken from their parents for abuse and neglect.
Their swimming pool with no water and a bunch of junk.
The trash behind the fountain that doesn't work.
The kids patiently waiting.


The nutrition students from Metro put on a little skit about eating healthy. The performed it in Spanish, and the kids really enjoyed it.
After their performance, the students gave the kids balls. Futbols and bouncy balls. They were really excited. I donated money for groceries for them, as did other students.
The girls can't get the balls out of the bag fast enough.


We also brought new nets for their basketball hoops. The boys are patiently waiting for Cisco to get the net on.
Cody is helping this boy open the string on his new futbol.
We stayed and played and played.
Cody having fun.
Cisco helping this little guy make a basket.

Cisco helping another little boy score some points.
John and Cisco help make teams. The boy in the white shirt is 13, when we told him Cisco was 14 he couldn't believe it.

Rufi sharing his kindness.
