The Children's Home Society of Vir.
glnia was organized twenty years age
by the Ministerial Union Of Richmond
and Manchester and Chartered by the
Legislature in 1900 and during these
years has gathered up, cared for and
placed in family homes more than four
thousand of the helpless, homeless little
children OF this state.
Last year the society had one thous,
and seven-hundred children under its
care. Twelve hundred of these are
legal wards of the society. In addition
TO these five hundred other children in
distress came to the society for tempo
rary aid. These latter came out OF
broken homes, having lost father or
mother and were given the care of the
society until REIMBURSEMENT could be
made and then were returned to their
homes.
The Society received under its care
for the first time last year, six hundred
and ninety-siX children. Shenandoah
County has furnished twenty-eight
children, who have become wards Of
the Society and are now happy in fam
lily homes and doing well.
