Orphanage Homes Visitation
At PEM Foundation, reaching out to vulnerable children and young people is central to our mission. One of the key ways we achieve this is through orphanage home visitations. In 2021, we visited Life Source Child Development Foundation, a dedicated home for children without parental care. During the visit, we donated various food items, essential toiletries, and cash contributions to support the children's welfare.
