There are three very special children waiting for their mom & dad to come and bring them home.  Home is something they’ve never known their entire lives as they live  in an Eastern European orphanage.  They have 7 brothers & sisters anxiously awaiting their arrival.  We have met them & fallen head over heals in love.  However, due to unforseen circumstances, we are $5,000 short of being able to bring our children home.  We need your help as our children need medical care stateside.  Our son has epilepsy.  Our little 4yo is missing part of her brain & needs interventions and therapies.  Our other daughter can not see well and needs some critical eye help.  Time has come to bring them home. They say it takes a village to raise a child.  It will take a village to bring these three precious ones home.  Please consider helping bring them home.  Any amount will help & be graciously appreciated. Your generous gift will indeed save 3 lives. Thank you.

A Child’s Embrace is workiling diligently to raise funds for a brand new adoption program in Africa. This program will be administered by our sister agency, Kids To Adopt.  It is our hope that we can help some of these children can find loving families to call their own.

When Kids To Adopt’s Executive Director, Dan Roberts, visited Burkina Faso, he took many photos that will captivate your soul.  Please take a moment to view this slide show.

Here are some alarming facts that may surprise you:

• There are over 40 million orphans in Africa.
• There 12-15 million orphans with HIV.
• 40% of the African population lives in slums.
• More than 50% of Africans suffer from water related diseases.
• In Sub-Saharan Africa, measles takes the life of a child almost every minute.
• About 2 million children die every year due to diarrhea from sanitation issues.

About Monty & Mandy

These two little darling siblings are in an orphanage in Eastern Europe. Both have been diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. Without our help, they have little chance of survival. CF is a life threatening disease but with current-day treatment and management, life expectancy can lead to a productive life.  With your help, we can help them live that productive, fulfilling life that every child deserves.  Current life expectancy, with treatment, is age 37 and mortality is usually a result of lung complications.  Without treatment and management, these kids will most likely not survive too many years.  Please help us help these little ones!  Mandy is only 2 years old and Monty just turned 3.
