Our new orphan, Chung He Soon, is a 10 year old Korean girl who lives in an orphanage near Seoul with 245 other children. Her mother passed away two years ago and her father is unable to care for He Soon and her two sisters. The financial sup- port from Martin Boots students helps to feed, clothe, and educate He Soon and makes her feel that she has friends who care for her. The Foster Parents Plan reports that He Soon is an attractive little girl with a gentle disposition. She works hard in school and hopes to be a teacher some day. O, cgeamafm rmrsv ouuvrv m vnu vm
