Celebrating Christmas with the children
Huge Grace Orphanage 上海广慈残疾儿
The history of HGO goes back two generations. The director's mother, a fine Christian lady, used the money she had and built a house on her land in Fengxian. It's on the outskirt of Shanghai. She took in children that were disabled and abandoned by their parents from some of the poorest provinces in China.
How We Serve Huge Grace
HGO is the only privately run orphanage that we know of. As a result, HGO has been
funded solely by the director's family and donations. Our relationship with HGO began when
our international church began supporting them in the late 1990's. Since 2009, Melissa has been
leading a team of volunteers once a month to run activities with the children.
Melissa has also
bought good quality lean meat, seafood. as well as cooking essentials like oil, soy sauce. On
special occasions, Melissa prepares special food items like brownies and chicken nuggets. Very
healthy! For the past few years, Mr. Sun, director, has opened a bakery and has taught the children paper
quilling with the aim of teaching them a set of skills they can use when they are too old to stay at
the orphanage.
