New Waiting Child in Eastern Europe

Gunter is a handsome 8 year old boy with no identified health issues.  He was raised by his mother until he was 6 and then was placed in foster care when she became unable to care for him.  Gunter is an extremely intelligent little boy with a bright imagination.  Gunter prefers reading to sports, but is fairly athletic.  He was very sad at the abandonment of his mother and longs to be part of a family.  Gunter's home country is open to both singles and married couples adopting.  The age of his new parents should be between 25 and 50 years, though this requirement may be flexible for an older couple who is healthy and active. 

Waiting Toddler Boys in Ethiopia!

Our list of little boys waiting unmatched for families just grew this morning....it looks like seven new little boys will be added to our waiting child page sometime next week.  We would love to have loving families or single moms to match these darlings with.  If you have been considering an Ethiopia adoption and long to add a little boy to your life now would be a great time. 

Waiting Child TINA

not a photo of the actual child Tina

This sweet brown-eyed girl has been waiting in Africa for many months to find her family.  She has celebrated other children's "gotcha" day and I am sure she is wondering when her new Family will come for her.  She came into care last January and was underweight and small for her age.  Since being in the care center she has celebrated her fourth birthday.  Tina has gained over 10 pounds since entering care.  She has good sleep and eating habits.  Doctors noted on exam that she has a systolic heart murmur and club feet.  Tina has been treated for her club feet by wearing splints at night and exchanging her right and left shoe during the day.  She is able to walk and play actively with the other children.  She is a chubby cheeked little girl that will win your heart!  Please email patty.fuchs@chiadopt.org for more information!

Waiting Children

As I sit at my desk I can see our wall of photos of children we have waiting for families.  Some of them are waiting solely because they are over the age of three, some because they have health challenges or special needs.  To protect the privacy of these children I can't post their photos here!  If you know of anyone who would be willing to open their heart to one of these children, please have them call or email us!
