Love Without Boundaries
The work that YCDA is doing in Odisha is so life-changing. On our visit to your programs, the care and concern for every single child was so apparent. We are so impressed with the wide range of services offered to vulnerable children to ensure each one has the best future possible. YCDA’s foster care is a model which will hopefully inspire others that family care and love is the right of every child. Thank you for everything you do! Many prayers for your continued success.
