On January 20, 2009, Mercy-USA for Aid and Development began providing three-month computer office software and English language training courses to orphans and other vulnerable youth in Albania. Forty orphans are enrolled in the first courses. Trainees are also receiving education in important life skills and character-building combined with awareness of the danger of slipping into crimes (drugs, prostitution, theft, etc.). Topics under character-building include the value of work versus waiting for handouts from others, respect for self and others, confidence, the value of helping others, honesty and integrity. The orphans are also being provided with a nutritious meal/snack during each class. This project is being done in cooperation with local orphanages and municipalities.
