Leping SWI (orphanage), Jiangxi Province



This is Leping SWI (orphanage). These photos were taken when the orphange was newly built. When we visited in October 2009, it was much older. We were told that no babies live in the SWI, that most babies from Leping go to foster homes. We were told the only children still living in the SWI were children with severe disabilities.
