The Thornwell Home for Children is located in Clinton, SC, is a ministry of the south Atlantic Synod of the Presbyterian Church USA serving abused, abandoned, and neglected children in SC, GA, FL. The home opened in 1875 and is one of the oldest homes in the United States. The children at Thornwell live in a family setting in 11 residential cottages with eight to ten children and professional caregivers in each home. They learn how to value themselves and their families and are assisted in learning academic and social skills, sound values and high morals. http://www.thornwell.org
