EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative advertisement from the Aberlour Orphanage in Charlestown of Aberlour, Morayshire, Scotland, dates back to the circa 1950s. The image, now part of the Peter Higginbotham Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, was likely used to solicit donations and support for the children's home. The advertisement features a heartfelt appeal, with the words "Help Us to Help Them" written in bold, inviting the community to contribute to the welfare and care of the orphaned and destitute children under the institution's charge. The image of the children, dressed in their Sunday best, gazes out with hopeful expressions, emphasizing the importance of their upbringing and the role that potential donors could play in shaping their futures. The Aberlour Orphanage, founded in 1869, was a non-denominational children's home that provided shelter, education, and care for orphaned, abandoned, and neglected children. The institution offered a safe and nurturing environment, focusing on the social, emotional, and physical development of its residents. The advertisement serves as a poignant reminder of the past and the importance of community support in providing care and opportunities for children in need. By contributing to the Aberlour Orphanage, donors helped ensure that these children received the love, guidance, and resources necessary to grow into confident, capable adults. The image, with its timeless message of hope and compassion, continues to resonate with viewers and serves as a testament to the enduring power of charitable giving.
