Simon's House is a home designed to rescue orphan boys from human trafficking in Moldova. Simon's House was originally built in 2006 by Stella's Voice (a nonprofit based out of Montgomery, Alabama) to rescue young orphan girls from human trafficking. It was originally named Stella's House 1 and is located in Chişinău, Moldova. In 2010, Stella's House 1 was converted and renamed to Simon's House. Simon's House is designed to provide a safe place for orphan boys to receive all basic needs such as security, food, shelter, and an education.
Name
Simon's House was named after the founder of the ministry, Simon Cameron (Christian Scottish missionary-evangelist) in honor of his devotion and original vision to help orphan boys and girls in Romania and Moldova. Simon's efforts lead to the personal discovery of the sex trafficking situation in Moldova. The ministry wanted Simon's legacy to continue in the naming of the first boy's home that helps rescue at-risk boys. Simon Cameron died in 2002.
