2018 NUMBER ONE ORPHANAGE IN SOUTHERN GUINEA – HOME OF HOPE
Home of Hope was recognized by the Foundation of the First Lady of Guinea as the number one orphanage in the Southern part of Guinea and the second-best in the entire Guinea, in terms of caring for children in need.
This was a big achievement for My Vision for Refugees and a big step towards getting the support of other humanitarian organizations in Guinea, in order to work together to help the refugee orphans have a better quality of life and opportunities for self-development.
My Vision for Refugees' outreach program in the Nzérékoré community (donating food items, educational supplies, clothing and medical supplies to hospitals, widow communities and former refugee camps) was also recognized and applauded by the Foundation of the First Lady of Guinea.
