Queen of Peace
Naga City, Philippines

Queen of Peace began in 1996 as a halfway house for a few children who were cast away by their families because they were disabled. Today the Compassionate Franciscan Sisters of the Poor serve nearly 70 children in their orphanage, day care and preschool.

Purpose
The Compassionate Franciscan Sisters of the Poor felt a calling to help disabled children who were forsaken by their families. Initially they provided discarded children with shelter, nutritious meals and medical care until they could be placed in a stable home.
The number of abandoned children needing help continued to grow and in 2005 the Sisters established Queen of Peace Children’s Home for 30 orphans. Today their orphanage cares for 50 children and is a day care and preschool for children from the surrounding community.
In 2018 they completed a multipurpose center with larger classrooms and a modern learning environment. In addition to the 50 orphans, 18 children from the community attend the day care and preschool where they receive a nutritious meal and snack each day. This allows both parents to work so they can earn enough money to put food on their table enabling their family to stay together.
