Despite the restrictions, during the closing of the schools, we visited the kids who had returned to their families after spending some time with us. These visits allow us to make sure that the children are going to school and that their needs are taken care of.
Everyone was pleased to see us, and, given the state of need, we brought some food to share with families.
After the reopening of the schools, our staff could also visit our children who study in schools far away. They, too, were happy to see us, and we were so glad to hug them again and know how much they are committed to their studies.
