PLAYGROUND
A team from Calvary Chapel of Yuba City traveled to Samaritan Village this summer. Thanks to their hard work and some generous donations from Adventure Church of Yuba City and an individual donor, the children now have a new playground! It includes a giant play structure with several slides, various size swing sets and a zipline. The team also made a new basketball backboard combining the flags of the USA and Tanzania. A soccer field was also created below the playground area.




NEW BUNK BEDS
A team from Calvary Chapel of Yuba City traveled to Samaritan Village this summer. Thanks to their hard work and some generous donations from Adventure Church of Yuba City and an individual donor, they were able to purchase and assemble bunk beds and mattresses for the rooms o the new dorm. The result is there are now beds for 30 more children.
The social welfare department was contacted with the news and three children were brought to the orphange within a month.

We now have two greenhouses that supply an abundance of produce for the children. There are also several crops being grown in gardens including bananas, potatoes, corn, beets, watermelons and more.




ANIMALS
We are now raising pigs, cows goats and chickens. All the animals provide food for the children. In addition, the pigs are raised and sold for a profit to local hotels.




CHAPEL RENOVATION
The children and members of the local community meet regularly each morning at 5:30 a.m. as well as Sunday and Wednesday nights for worship and to hear a message from the Word of God. The children also hold their own service every evening at 6:00 p.m.
As the number of children continues to grow and more members of the community attend these services, there was a growing need to enlarge the chapel.





MEDICAL CLINIC
The three story modern medical clinic/dormitory is now complete and fully licensed. It opened fro business September 1, 2019. The two floors of dorm rooms allows us to grow to over 100 children. The clinic helps meet the medical needs of the children and members of the surrounding community.
The clinic offer services similar to an urgent care facility in the USA. Two doctors and two nurses are on staff at the clinic. In addition, it also offers a maternity ward for delivering babies.





Cow Barn/Chicken Coup
In an ongoing effort to make the orphanage as self-sufficient as possible, we have added cows for milk and laying chickens. There will be one building to house both.
Currently we have a mother cow and two bulls and 400 laying chickens! That's a lot of eggs!





PIG HOUSE
The orphanage has raised pigs for several years. The pigs are raised for use by the orphanage and as a means of support.
The pigs are sold to local hotels who use them for tourists.
The pig pens were meant to be temporary and it is now time to build a permanent structure. Construction is now complete.
