We just received an email from Ashley Guinan regarding the first community survey which has now been completed. Fascinating! Of 141 houses surveyed, 136 had orphans living in their home! In this neighborhood alone, 404 orphans were identified. In 56 cases, the primary caregiver was a grandparent.
When asked what they considered to be the biggest need of the orphans in their community, 104 said education followed by 25 saying a clinic was the highest need. Looks like we're on the right track with the organization of community schools.
We hope to have the results next week from the surveys Ashley and Rachael are conducting in 2 other communities.
