The children must wash themselves in a small river nearby, and the area residents are not happy with that. However, they have no choice. They rarely have water for washing, despite the second cistern at the entrance of the house to gather water on rainy days.
"It is fundamental to show children that one loves them and really wants to help them. The rest goes automatically. It is also a work of justice towards these children whose physical, intellectual and moral development is jeopardized by a life without affection, without guidance, without constraint, without obligation. The street cannot educate in any way." Father Joseph Simon of Timkatec.
