Albergue de Niños de Ponce (Ponce Shelter for Boys) was a shelter for orphan boys originally located in Barrio Canas Urbano in Ponce, Puerto Rico, and later moving to permanent quarters in Barrio Canas, also in Ponce. The not-for-profit shelter operated from 1931 to around 1985.

Mission

By 1931, when the shelter opened,[1] the city of Ponce already offered facilities for the blind ("Asilo de Ciegos de Ponce"[2]), the elderly poor ("Asilo de Mendigos de Ponce"[3]) and the homeless ("Asilo de Huérfanos de Ponce"[4]). In addition, it also had a shelter for the mentally-incapacitated ("Asilo de Locos"[5]). However, it had no shelter for orphan boys. Albergue de Niños de Ponce filled this need. The shelter's mission was to provide shelter for homeless orphan children.

History

Juan Luis Boscio (1896 - 1980), a local businessman and later mayor of Ponce (1961 - 1964), was one of the founders of the Albergue de Niños de Ponce.[6] The shelter was founded in 1931[1] on the north side of Calle Villa in Barrio Canas, between Calle Cementerio Civil and Calle Central.[7] Albergue de Niños later moved to the a new masonry structure located on the south side of Calle Villa, between Escuela Jaime L. Drew, and PR-500. Among its directors was Jaime L. Drew, a prominent educator from Ponce.[6]

The facility had room for 170 homeless orphan boys and consisted of Шаблон:Convert, including an area for agriculture.[8]

Today

A local non-profit foundation, the Ivan Ayala Kidz Cancer Foundation, is currently (2019) looking to use the former Albergue de Niños building on Calle Villa Final as a hospital for children with cancer, and affiliate it to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.[1] Construction of the Steven Anthony Children’s Hospital started on 16 November 2019.[9]
