Activity Or Mission	Open Arms Home for Children provides residential resources and education to children and young adults raised at Open Arms who are victims of the AIDS pandemic in South Africa or other tragic circumstances that caused them to become homeless. They are provided with daily needs of food clothing shelter and healthcare in a loving and caring environment. Education is pre-school through high school plus vocational training or college for those who have obtained their majority but are not yet ready to live independently. This is not an adoption agency it is a forever home for these children. The agency cared for 58 children at December 31.	ActivityOrMissionDesc
