I have already received several emails wanting to team up to do volunteer work in Shenzhen orphanages.

We have set up a BBBSS (big brother super sister) volunteer program, where we visit the orphanages on regular basis, simply to play with and provide brotherly / sisterly guidance. Our team in Shenzhen was able to establish a parternship, allowing our team to visit on regular basis. However, they are very reluctant and susupicous of our sincerity and dedication.

As you can imagine, Shenzhen orphanages are constantly bombarded with foreignors wanting come by and help. But the orphanages already have a well staffed workers and a routine program scheduled. That in conjuction with foreignors that have given negative publicity, they don't want our volunteer work. We are nothing but nuisance to them.

So, if you really want to volunteer. Here's my recommendation.

A. Present them that you are sincere and committed for a long term volunteer work, at least one year. Be persistent.
B. Partner up with a local school or church that may already have a voluteer program established with the orphanage, or
C. Go to 1,000's of other orphanages that are under funded (unlike Shenzhen) and are filled with infants to teenagers that really do need your volunteer work.

I recommend option C. Also, instead of trying to satisfy your immediate desire to help. Try organizing a long term volunteer programs in your school or work. This may yield better results for short term and long term. If you want assistance in establishing volunteer programs. I would be more than glad to help. Again, I can be reached via cobyusa.com|jones_kim or msn.com|jk_racing

Like many of the African and South American coutnries, there are literally hundreds of thousands of orphans in China. Chinese gov't doe not want to make it public. But, that is a fact, a very sad reality. These children need our help. Let's try one child at a time. We can do it!

May God lead your heart and do great and mighty work through you.

Thanks for the insights Kim. Was researchiing on starting a Care Givers Group here in Shenzhen and would definitely look into option C as my main goal. God spoke through you to give me the directions.
