The document proposes merging an old age home with an orphanage to provide companionship and care for both elderly residents and orphaned children. It notes that elderly residents and orphans both experience loneliness, lack of love and guidance, and can support each other emotionally. Specific organizations and homes that have already merged facilities are described, including the criteria they use to select sites and the services they provide. Challenges of migration and potential bad influences are also discussed.

population into mini-families such that
one or more kids are associated to each
of the old person / couple - but this
should be optional.The aged person /
couple may not be willing or physically
able to take the responsibility.This
should not be a burden but a source of
enjoyment making life meaningful.

structure, resources, time tables,
preferences, and its own place to live -
within the perimeter of the facility.

play, study, interact with other kids,
