Line 35:
* St. Helen of the Blessed Shroud Orphanage is, despite being run by The Penguin, an Orphanage of Love. Because ''[[The Blues Brothers]]'' wouldn't have [[Saving the Orphanage|risked everything to save it]] otherwise.
** It was mostly because their mentor, Curtis, would be thrown out on the street once the sale of the orphanage was final.

* The Cherrywoods' orphanage in the frame story of ''[[The Care Bears Movie]]''.
* The orphanage in ''[[Meet the Robinsons]]'' where Lewis and Goob grow up appears to be one of these, complete with kindly matron Mildred.▼
** Interestingly, the DVD commentary says that Mildred is careful to not coddle the children ''too'' much since they need to be able to leave when adopted without emotional hang-ups. The biggest problem at Lewis' orphanage is, well, [[Mad Scientist|Lewis himself]], though he [[Character Development|gets better]].▼

* ''[[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends]]'', but with imaginary friends whose owners have grown-up and left them. It has a surprisingly very very very small staff for such a one-of-a-kind place, but everyone there generally enjoys their stay.
** Mr.
* The orphanage where Tim lives in ''[[Nocturna]]'' doesn't really feature too much in the movie, but it appears to be more or less this trope; children are given the run of the place during the daylight hours and there are plenty of toys to keep them amused. The only hitch is that Tim tends to be given rather a rough time by the other children because of his noisy bedtime ritual.
* [[Jem|Starlight House]] isn't an orphanage, but the same principle applies.
