HOPE STATION believes every child who is orphaned deserves a champion in their life who is motivated by love and equipped to care so they can fully thrive. These nannies are champions to these kids. And this video gets me every time. These nannies are usually running around changing diapers (for all ages), feeding hungry mouths, cleaning up messes, or sitting exhausted on the staircase. Just imagine spending 6 days a week, 24 hours a day, caring for 10 children with special needs on your own... All the mamas and babas (that's Chinese for daddy) and aunties and older brothers and babysitters and grandmas and grandpas out there can attest that to do that successfully is impossible. Many of the nannies have worked in this orphanage for over 15 years. That's over 112,320 hours of hard physical and emotional work...
Here is a rare moment of the nannies taking a much needed breather, and a sweet interaction of love with their kiddos. These nannies deserve all the respect we can give them. And they need help. HOPE STATION is in the midst of looking ahead to the next few years and developing new initiatives to support orphans and raise up champions around them. You can be sure that it's gonna include new programs for training and support of the women who do the impossible for the kids who need it the most.

A note from Rebekah...If you've ever wondered what it would be like to start a nonprofit from the ground up, to open a home for ORPHANS with special needs in Asia, you've come to the right place. Archives
