Northside Scholarship Program

These are some of the houses we visited over the three week period that the team was here. We personally spent time in each of the homes to meet the children and their families as well as to observe their need. Some had mainly physical needs like the loss of work due to injury or seasonal farmwork, some had family difficuties including single parents who couldn't work and even some with extreme difficluties including cancer, sickness, abuse and rape. It was an eye opening experience for all of us. We saw homes where there were no smiles, not even on the faces of littlest 2 year olds who shouldn't know anything but the smiles of a child's wonder and amazement at the world. But we were extremely encouraged to know that the little that we were doing was going to help these families.
