Care for the Orphans & The Elderly
In the communities we serve in, the prevalence neglect, abandonment and violence meted against older persons and orphans has taken new dimensions such as killings, domestic violence, rape particularly among older women, kidnapping for monetary gain, fraud to acquire property and money from older members of society engineered by children. Visitation Daughters of Mary supports this marginalized group in their own homes through HOME-BASED-CARE.
