A Faraway Home

This heartfelt story begins on the streets of New York City in 1854 where thousands of homeless children, immigrants and natives are fighting to survive. Charles Loring Brace, founder of the Childrens Aid Society, made a plan to rescue the children by getting them out of the city to loving rural homes in Americas growing Midwest. You will experience the hope, fear and excitement as you travel with Jack, Sarah, George and 42 other orphans on their way to new faraway homes and better lives.
