FAMILY STRENGTHENING
We have changed our strategy to help children on a nonresidential basis due to the latest developments and with God’s guidance. After attending the World Without Orphans Global Forum in 2016, we decided to help children by supporting and preserving them in their family homes with their single mother or guardian instead of placing them in institutional home. Our goal is in strengthening families and ultimately strengthening communities. UNICEF is saying that the institutionalization is the last resort for the children and are asking countries to look for alternative care.
​
At present we are helping 30 children. All day children will be with us for food and education. We will take care of everything including medical. However, we will send the children in the evening after dinner to stay with their single parent, guardian, grandparents, or kin relatives. Previously we took care of children from different parts of our state. Now we are more focused on the local slum in the vicinity where we live. This way we can reach more children and can reach the communities as well.
​
As people affected by the pandemic continue to fight a hunger crisis, as God’s children it is time for us to stand with them for their well-being. As of October 2022, LYNY has served more than thousand families by giving grocery kits. Many children especially in the slums are not able to get hygienic food. We see single mothers and grandparents are really facing lot of challenges in bringing up these children. Let us stand and continue to help those in extreme need at this time!
​
LYNY continues its support to relieve people struggling with basic necessities like healthy food.
