Children’s Homes

Families that cannot afford to care for their children give them away to secure a better life. Tragically, this practice often leads to servitude, deprivation, and abuse—in Creole, these children are called restaveks. The girls at our Mercy Home have been rescued from slavery and now live in an environment where they are loved, educated, and given a hope-filled future. The Mercy Children’s Home was sponsored by Children’s Hunger Fund and Dr. Myron Wentz.
