Vulnerable children are at risk for poverty, health concerns, neglect and abuse.

A child born to another woman calls me mommy.  The depth of the tragedy and the magnitude of the privilege are not lost on me.

Anyone who ever wondered how much they could love a child who did not spring from their own loins, know this: it is the same. The feeling of love is so profound, it’s incredible and surprising.

This child has grown in my heart, not in my body.

We took the first step toward adoption in faith, praying that somehow the money will follow.

Poverty can lead to “social orphans” or children who haven’t necessarily lost one or both parents, but whose parents can’t take care of them.

Families don’t have to match. You don’t have to look like someone else to love them.

One choice, one action, one life at a time.

Every child deserves to belong to a loving family.

Adoption is rewarding. But the process…can be expensive, exhausting, and hard to sustain on a dream, much less a whim.

The most common reasons why children may be trafficked include sexual exploitation, forced labor, warfare and organ removal.

Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.

To fight against child labor is to fight against global poverty.

I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

I love Ethiopia because Ethiopia gave me you.

There are countless ways that children can lose one or both parents, or be put in a position where they don’t have support.
