The
Needs of Orphan Children are REAL.
-
In
2007, Americans adopted approximately 20,000
children internationally, a tragically small number
in comparison to the need.
Orphan
Children Need Adoptive Parents.
Orphans
Overseas continues efforts to improve orphanage
conditions for those children who must grow up in them.
However, we believe all children deserve the love and
support of a permanent family. We will advocate for
adoptive families for as many of those vulnerable
children as possible.
We
celebrate international adoption as a wonderful solution
for those children unable to grow up in their families
of birth. Orphans Overseas has given more than 900
children hope by providing loving adoptive families for
at-risk orphan children from Romania, China, Russia,
Vietnam, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and the United States
since 1991. We long for every family to adopt one child,
so that we would wipe out the need for orphanages around
the world.
WE
BELIEVE it is in the best interest of a child to grow up
in his or her own family whenever possible.
Orphans Overseas, along with many worldwide outreach
organizations, is making efforts at family preservation.
Still, in our broken world, it is not always in a
child’s best interest to remain with his or her family
of birth and adoption enables these at risk children to
have permanent families. Orphans Overseas believes in
the importance of families to nurture children-both
birth families and adoptive families.
