As Christians,we are called to care for widows and orphans. There are about 140 millions orphans in the world with 513,000 children in foster care in the United States.

"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress.........." James 1:27

Thanks for your concern...
