Lives are Being Transformed
Thursday, July 15, 2010 at 9:40AM Vanya from Lifesong for Orphans on Vimeo.
I remember the first time I saw Vanya because there was something different about him. Yes, he was the only black kid in the whole orphanage, but more than that, there was something about his eyes that intrigued me.
"Vanya is a smart kid." Denis, our director, told us. "He was abandoned as a newborn. His parents were students at the university and he is very smart."
I smiled at him and he smiled back. His outgoing personality was evident as he tried his hand at English. I met a lot of kids at that summer camp in 2004, but Vanya is the one I remember.-Marla Ringger, Orphan Advocate
