Meet some of our amazing waiting children!  They are available through our various international adoption programs.  To learn more about our programs, please visit our website .   

Karen

Karen is a lovely 7-year-old girl who does well in second grade.  She enjoys dance, gymnastics and dolls, as well as playing games on the ipad.  Karen is currently placed with biological relatives, however she is reported to experience behavioral challenges in the home, and her caregivers feel she would do better in a different home.  This is a private, domestic adoption, and the adoptive family should be willing to maintain a relationship with Karen's biological relatives.  Because of this, the adoptive family must live within close proximity of southern New Jersey.  The adoptive family must be home study ready (or close to it), and have no younger children in the home. Please email Diana Bramble  for further information.
Teddy

We gave this boy the advocacy name Teddy because he is cute and cuddly like a teddy bear!  This boy sure is a sweetheart. Many of our staff and friends have met sweet Teddy, and only have good things to say about him. Teddy is one and a half, and is diagnosed with hypospadias. He appears to be on target developmentally, and would flourish in a loving home! Teddy is available for adoption from China, and can be matched with a qualified family at any stage of the adoption process. Please email Sarah Hansen  for more information, and check out his adorable VIDEOS!
Sophie

Sophie is a strikingly beautiful, healthy 8-year-old girl with grand aspirations of becoming a doctor when she grows up.  She is a smart girl, and does well in school.  Sophie is known to always help out with dishes and cleaning.  She is a respectful, kind girl, who gets along with caregivers and her peers.  Sophie is available for international adoption from a small Asian country.  If you are interested in more information on this gorgeous girl, please email Amanda Felizardo.
Rebecca

Rebecca is a beautiful, healthy young lady who has a sense of humor and enjoys a good laugh, especially when among close friends.  Rebecca has a talent for and enjoys singing and dancing, but often gets shy in front of large groups. Over the past month, Rebecca was observed by the staff the child caring agency (CCA) as being less talkative and quite lonely. Recently, she shared with the administrator that she was feeling sad and bothered as she may never be adopted as she was nearing 15 years of age, the maximum age for adoption. She would often inquire as to whether a parent had been found for her yet.  When advised to pray and ask for help from the Lord, her response was, "That's exactly what I've been doing every single night."  Could you be the answer to Rebecca's prayers?  Rebecca is available for international adoption from a small Asian country.  If you are interested in more information on this beautiful child, please email Amanda Felizardo.  
Luis

When asked about his desire for a family he stated, "I want a good family which takes care of me, who I can play XBOX with and who I can go out to travel with."  Could you be Luis' family?  Luis is available for adoption from a country in South America. Please reach out to Misty Lucas if you are interested.
