History of Mama Tara
The orphanage was started by Florinda Florres Blos, known to everyone as Mama Tara. Mama is seventy seven years old and single handedly mothers twenty-one orphans.
"Dreams come true" is written on the pillow case she lays her head on each night. Her dream is to help the Miskito people by caring for abandoned and malnurished children.
Mama's heart after God, servanthood, and thankfulness are what make her such a gem. Every child brought into Mama's family is given what every child needs, food, shelter, clothing, education, a loving parent, and most importantly the chance to learn about Christ.
Mama believes her dream has come true. Nothing brings her more joy than sharing the gifts God has given her with the children He has entrusted to her care.
