Orphanage-6 (Buhug)

Childcare Center of
Mongolia is the only, national Orphanage where about 300 kids who have
no parents live and study together. They get much less financial support
by the government than socialism age. CCM has a simple residential building
and a big field where they produce vegetables such as carrots, radish,
onions, etc. just enough for their meals all year (they keep it 4 meter
under the ground for one year that is a quite magic!) The vegetables are
very purely organic and very tasty and kids are very nice!
Work: We
will work together with the orphans aged 12-15 to remove the weeds in the
field like last year. Quite tiring but let's enjoy it with them! 4 groups
of 30 kids come here for each 2 weeks in July and Aug., so this is the
last group before harvest in mid. Sep.
