Remarkable Church Gfbup Aids Koreans 23,000 Orphans Are Wards Os Americans By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International Kim Kwang Hyung was four years old when a GI patrol found him lying on a heap of rags in the cellar of a bomb-flattened ed by malnutrition. Today Kim is a healthy, boisterous 10-year-old. He lives with 200 other orphans on a well-kept farm near Anyang, Korea. On his birthday, at Christmas, and several other times during the year, he receives packages of clothing, toys and food from an elderly couple in lowa. Kim is one of 23,000 children who have b een “adopted” by Americans through a remarkable organization called the Christian Children’s Fund (CCF). CCF is the largest Protestant child welfare agency in the world. It operates or helps to operate 287 orphanages in 35 countries around the world. AH Began In Barbershop It was founded in 1938 by a Presbyterian minister. Dr. J. Calvitt Clarke, who still serves as its international director. Clarke recalls that CCF was born in a barbershop conversation with a Methodist missionary who recently had returned from China. The missionary noted Clarke’s experience in philanthropic fund - raising, and asked: “Why don’t you do something for these children?” Clarke thought it over for about 10 seconds' and announced, "All right, I will,’’ The organization he founded “with a prayer and a dollar's worth of stationery” has collected more than 30 million dollars in the 20 years since. Most o fthis money has gone directly to orphans in need. CCF operates with one of the lowest overhead costs ,of any charitable agency in existence. Last year, about 12 per cent of its total budget went into administrative expenses, including fundraising costs. The rest went to feed, clothe, shelter and educate orphans. Although CCF has built some model orphanages of its own, it has found that it is usually more efficient to “assist” orphanages already established by various Christian missionary ** organizations. This help includes providing them with whatever margin of financial aid they may need to improve their facilities or to take in additional children. Must Have Medical Attention CCF will give help to an orphanage operated by any denomination, provided it can give assurances that the children will grow up in a Christian atmosphere, with proper food, medical att'ention and schooling. More than 80 per cent of CCF's funds are contributed through an

“adoption plan" which establishes a direct, personal link between the donor and the particular orphan he is sponsoring. Here’s how it works: The sponsor (who may be an individual, a couple or a group such as a church school class) contributes $lO a month through CCF. This is the average cost, on a worldwide basis, of maintaining a child in a CCF-affiliated orphanage. The sponsor Indicates the kind of child he prefers to “adopt”— boy or girl, approximate age, and nationality. He soon receives from CCF a little packet introducing the adopted child. It contains a photograph and a brief biography telling when and how the child came to a CCF orphanage, how he is getting along in school, what his interests are, what size clothihg he wears. Sponsors are encouraged to write to their “adopted” children and to send them packages ifthey wish. In turn, the sponsor gets letters from the child and progress reports from the orphanage. There is no obligation to continue an “adoption.” A sponsor may discontinue payments after the first $lO. But the drop-out rate is incredibly low. Last year it was less than four per cent. Nancy Raudenbush was in charge of Monday's meeting of the Up and At It club of Blue Creek township. Pledges for this meeting held at the home of Pauline Ripley, were led by Kathy Brunstrup and Linda Roe, while Nancy Miller led group singing.
