War, massacres, displacement, famine and economic crisis left over 100,000 children
orphaned across the Ottoman Empire during WWI. Though most orphans were left to fend for
themselves, as their numbers swelled, state and charitable groups began to set up
orphanages, many of which were absorbed by Near East Relief after the war.
