King's Refuge Orphanage – La Platta, Argentina King’s Refuge Orphanage opened its doors in 1987 when they received their first 3 children. The need to care for abandoned and abused children is enormous. After the first children came to King’s Refuge they continued to receive calls from the court and were given several more children in need of care. They received children who had been living in ditches and abandoned warehouses. Others came with physical signs of the abuse. All came with the baggage of past rejection. King’s Refuge offers these children love, acceptance, and a safe environment where they can grow. In addition, they are under the care of a Christian social worker and a psychologist who visit weekly. From those small beginnings, they have now established three homes (with a total of 33 children). The children attend a public school. King’s Refuge has a permanent staff of 9 and several volunteers who help with cooking, laundry, tutoring, and other tasks. King’s refuge is providing a home for kids who need a family of their own!      Return to Projects
