I did an Eagle Scout project collecting shoes for an orphanage in Reque, Peru and later, my cousin did a similar project for kids at a school in Santa Cruz, Bolivia and I got to go down with him to meet the kids and help with other projects there.
    I absolutely love how you guys came to the conclusion to integrate the family unit model into your orphanage! There is definitely a sacred power in defending the family. May God bless you and your efforts and may those blessings pour out abundantly to all those whose lives you touch!

    I've been watching Smarter Every Day for a while now, but this is the first time I've seen a video on Not Forgotten. This brought a tear to my eye Destin - my wife and I have had the privilege of raising our 3 bio kids, and also for the past 11 years our four foster kids, 3 brothers and a sister from the same family. It has been hard work, heartbreaking at times, but we have been so happy to see the results, and we feel so fortunate to have been able to be along for the journey. Our foster daughter was way behind with her language and maths when they first came to us. Two years ago, she graduated with a Bachelor of Education, and was dux of her graduating class. She is now teaching at a school in a low socio-economic area, and completing her Masters at the same time. Her youngest brother, in spite of being on the ASD spectrum, is now half way through his degree in environmental science and holds a really good gpa. He is passionate about the environment and we know will contribute to his area of expertise once he graduates. I honour your efforts to contribute to Not Forgotten, and I hope and pray that the ministry will continue to grow and be able to reach more kids who need a home in Peru. God bless brother!

    Well done Dustin and all involved.
    Love your channel, this was definitely out of the ordinary but one of your best.
    I would happily give my physical time to these lovely people if i didnt live in Ireland and have a family to look after.
    That being said i will be signing up and helping funding their efforts.
    Great work.

    You are one class act!
    Obviously everyone already knew that but you're even more classy than I imagined.

    I spent some time in Benin, Africa years ago - kind of on a research mission of my own but also being a part of the efforts down there in whatever capacity I could serve in ... spent time at an orphanage where they were building housing and bunk beds for the children... and I absolutely fell in love with the people ... so I know exactly what you're describing here as I watch this video in tears - knowing how totally satisfying it is to be a part of the solution for those kids ... who would be lost without those efforts. How amazing is it that you have the heart for this as well as the education to see it through. What a privilege ... to serve like this ... what higher calling could there be on this planet? Thank you for sharing.

    Excellent, thank you for your example. Serving orphans and abandoned children has to be one of the hardest things you can do, but also one of the most powerful, influential, and rewarding things. You’re not going to get much in the way of riches or applause but you are storing up treasures where it really counts!

    Despite being subscribed and notifications on all UA-cam is hiding your videos from me. Glad I came looking to see what's going on! Nearly hurt my finger I clicked that Patreon link so fast! Thanks again for the great content.
