As it is, with the help of many caring people such as you, our Orphan Unit can now be called a herd and we are very proud of that.

As a foster parent we will be sending you monthly updates with a link to The Keeper's Diary, this way you will be able to continue to keep in close contact with the life of Turkwel.
