Using the funds donated by you, the orphanage bought a lot of books for preschool children and other reading matter for juveniles, biographies, classics, etc. Thus, the orphans have a better place for reading, and they can develop their intelligence from childhood, and can learn and progress in an ocean of knowledge. Now the orphans in the Institute are progressing rapidly, and they not only are enriched with more knowledge, but also become more and more bright and lovely. They have a lot of books to read as any ordinary children. The life of the orphans in the Institute becomes a great deal full and varied.” | |
