My host Reuben was a big part in starting an orphanage where we stayed during our time in that region.
I asked him where the babies came from and he responded in this way:
"The police bring them to us; they were abandoned. Girls sometimes leave them at the gate."
I did get to spend some time with the kids on two days, but they ask for privacy and legal reasons that you not photograph them.
One very happy statistic they shared was that no child that has entered their facility has had to be moved to a facility for older kids because every child so far has been adopted!
