WHAT IS WRONG?
The Guatemalan government does not support
orphanages in our country, a study by Enrique
Maldonado and posted by “Changing The Way
We Care” reports that “the Guatemalan
government does not invest even 1.0% of its
budget in the care, shelter, or special
protection of its children” (Maldonado 12).
