Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the Methodist Protestant Children's Home, 1910-1935
The people in and around Denton came to us almost daily with food for our family. One of our greatest joys was in taking our two wheeled cart down to meet the evening train to see if we had any boxes, and we seldom came back without one or more that had come from somewhere in the state, which proved the interest our people had in the orphan child, and was a great source of encouragement to those in charge. We soon had a cow, chickens, two pigs, and in the spring made our first garden, so we fared well. Our children were healthy and doing well in school. Those were great days.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the remarkable story of the Methodist Protestant Children's Home, a haven for orphaned and disadvantaged children in North Carolina during the first half of the 20th century. The author recounts the home's origins in 1910, detailing the tireless efforts of a small group of dedicated women who, against considerable odds, established the first Methodist Protestant Children's Home in the world. The book chronicles the home's early years, its move to a permanent location in High Point, North Carolina, and the challenges and triumphs it faced as it grew and evolved. The book weaves together personal narratives, heartfelt anecdotes, and historical context, offering a poignant glimpse into the lives of the children who found refuge in the home, the dedicated individuals who guided and nurtured them, and the broader societal landscape of the time. Readers will be captivated by the stories of the children, many of whom came from impoverished backgrounds and faced difficult circumstances. The book also explores the unwavering commitment of the home's administrators, who, with limited resources and unwavering faith, strived to provide a loving and nurturing environment for their charges. Through the lens of the Methodist Protestant Children's Home, the book sheds light on the evolution of social welfare systems in the United States, highlighting the profound impact of charitable organizations in providing vital care and support to vulnerable children during a pivotal period of American history.
