The Children
Before they came to Anna Home all the children had a hard life. No good place to live, not enough money for heating and food, let alone for school. Some were mistreated by their parents. All of them go to school since September 2007.
Ankhzaya (2017) came to the house in January 2020. She was found by the police, alone in a ger, at temperatures well below zero. Her mother and her aunt could not be found. And so this girl of only 2 years old was abandoned. In fact, she was far too young, but there was no alternative and so our residents have another little sister.
Ganzorig, 2004, lives in Anna Home since December 2008. His dramatic living conditions before that are described in the newsletter of December 15, 2008 In 2022 he started studying law in university.

In 2015 Aminerdene (2012) came to Anna Home, only three yeras old. Her mother, who was pregnant again, can not take care of her. She has no home.
Sumyasuren (2008) also came in 2015. She lost her mother in a fire in 2009 and was adopted after that. But her adoption mother became very ill and could not take care of her. Her grandmother has no home to take her into. And so she lived in Anna Home. In 2024 she started her study Graphic Design at the university in Ulaanbaatar..

Munkhorgil (2011) and Munkhzaya (2014) are brother and sister. They came in 2018. Their mother is too poor to care for them: she has no work and no house. She also has a child of 1 year old, too young for Anna Home. He now goes to school, she goes to the kindergarten.

Three children from one family also came to us in 2018, at the request of the local government. Mother is homeless and has big mental problems. The children were to become victims. Budgerel (2002) goes to the technical school. Anudari (2014) goes to the 8th Class. She has quite a few problems, for which the people of Anna Home try to care as well as possible. The youngest, Purevdori (2007) is healthy.
In 2021 another trio from one family came: Bymbadorj (2011), Otgonchimeg (2013) and Nomin-Chimeg (2017). The family was homeless, the children did not go to school. the youngest girl came with bad deformities in her legs, they both were quite curved. Shortly after she came to Anna Home she has been operated in Ulaanbaatar. And now she walks like a lapwing on more or less straight legs.
In 2020 Nomin-Erdene came. Her life is not easy. In 2023 her brother Anar came, the 3 years old. He is too young for Anna Home, but at home things go too wrong.

Dawaajargal’s mother was unemployed and homeless. The local government asked us in 2024 to take care of him, and we are! He is 7 years old and never went to school, so he is catching up.
In 2024, Ayalguu came to Anna Home. She was born in 2020. Her mother had to go to prison and her father is dead. She lived with her grandmother for a year, but that didn’t go well. Her house was not suitable and grandma had major psychological problems. The judge eventually had Ayalguu removed from her house.
In 2023, three brothers came to live in Anna Home, Odgerel, 12, Odtselmeg, 9, and Odbaatar, 8 years old. They came at the request of the mayor of district 6 of Choibalsan. Their parents have too many problems with life to raise them themselves. Mother brought them herself. As so often, vodka plays a major role in this. Fortunately, they did go to school and we continue that.
