I ask this question because the problem of the world's orphans seems to great and overwhelming that I would like to know where is the greatest need. I would very much love to start an orphanage; this has been a dream of mine for years. And the pragmatist in me wants to know which country has the worst problem of orphans in the poorest conditions, thereby directing me to start one there. I would like to go where the problem is the worst. I would feel as though I were doing my best to contribute in some small way therefore by going where the problem is the worst. I would really appreciate any insights into the global pandemic. I know Central America (specifically Guatemala), East Africa (specifically Kenya) and India are at the top for orphan population. But more specific and authoritative information would be incredibly helpful. Thank you so much!
Once someone with some knowledge, experience and expertise could answer this question for me, I would like to solicit others to join force
