Abstract

We say that we are hungry, but most of us have never experienced real hunger. We sometimes feel deprived, but we don't know what true deprivation is. Most of us are unaware that a population endures these circumstances on a daily basis. This thesis will enable you, the reader, to become familiar with the group of children that are living in a constant state of depravation. This thesis provides an in-depth account of the children living in orphanages and on the streets in Romania. It will address the evolution of this paramount disaster, and explore the possibilities for change. Also included are statements from volunteers and missionaries working to alleviate the plight of these poor and suffering children.
