One of the biggest problems affecting young adults who grew up in children's homes and orphanages is their lack of ability to adapt to the outside world, often causing psychological problems such as depression. "Large Hearts in Little Lives" works with the Ministry of Education and Science and the Ministry of Family, Youth and Sport to train these at-risk youth, provide medical and psychological support, and assist them to matriculate into universities, helping them adapt and live successful and rich lives.
