Here are a few numbers I got off of a video from the Orphan Sunday Website:

There are 143,000,000 orphans around the world.

143,ooo,ooo orphans standing shoulder to shoulder will go around the 10,913 mile perimeter of the USA nearly 4 times.

143,000,000 orphans in a single file line would reach around the earth over 2 times.

You could fill Michigan University Stadium 1,330 times to EQUAL 143,000,000
