Given by 8 generous donors in 4 weeks

Invitation to sponsor my walk to raise awareness and raise funds to change the lives of our world’s unloved Orphan children.

Otago

Every child deserves love and a sense of belonging, and I am driven by my motherly passion for children to do what I can achieve physically and financially, to rescue them from unsafe, abusive and abandoned situations. With your generosity we can assist in achieving love and justice for these vulnerable precious lives. If you want an excellent book to read I suggest ‘Rescue’ by Sue Van Schreven (Founder of Orphans Aid International. Obtainable online and from the Shop between Burger King and BP at Frankton Round-a-bout. You will then better understand my reason to help.

Joy Paterson's involvement (page creator)

I have an overwhelming love for abandoned, abused and disadvantaged children. If I can help change the life of even one child and see he/her placed into a permanent loving environment through this page then I will do what it takes. 🙏
