Guglielmo's Hope

The organization pairs orphaned children from around the world with families that are willing to host them for several weeks at a time during the summer and winter seasons. The organization has provided hosting for over 160 children during its fiscal year. The childrens airfare is provided for, as well as their cost of living and entertainment expenses. The children visit places like the beach, Disneyland, and soccer camp. The hosting families teach the orhpaned children how to live the American lifestyle and experience what family life is like. The organization also provides English lessons to some of the children that it expects to provide hosting for. This enables the children to have a smooth transition in to their hosting families and help them to gain a better understanding of American life while they are visiting. After the children returned to their home countries, it was reported that the children were happier than ever before and showed interest in brightening their futures.
