Skyler

Sensitive Skyler will have a family! We definitely need the stars to align so everything can be completed before he turns 14, but we've done it before and plan to do it again with the help of our government and China! Please keep good thoughts for everything to work out! Congratulations to Skyler and his new family:-)

ASIA has now found families for 70% of the Hope Journey children! We still have 30% left to make their dreams come true, so keep spreading the word! While we all have much to be thankful for this holiday season, a piece of my heart will be thinking of the children still left without families.

Gentle John





John's superman shirt tells his story. He is a lost boy who is in a different world and needs a family to adopt him to teach him the ways of the world. John is a sweet, kind, gentle and resilient child. He remembers his abandonment, which is a story that can only be shared with a family wanting to consider this gentle boy to be a part of their family. As much sadness as his abandonment brought to him at an older age, John is very sweet and caring with others, even younger children. He believes all things have life, even plants, and shouldn't be hurt. You can see by the genuine smile on his face and his bright and cheery artwork how optimistic he is in life. John would make a loving addition to the right family. Won't someone consider him? No one is currently looking at his file. Please contact me if you would like to consider him: marcisk@asiadopt.org

Dreams

Have you ever had a dream? A dream of something that felt so strong inside you that it hurt when you saw others accomplishing it? The children in the Hope Journey program each have a dream of having a family of their very own. Parents that will come to their high school and college graduations. Grandparents for their children. A support network that will always be there for them, no matter what. They see other children getting adopted into families and feel that pain and wonder...where is my family? Well, it's ASIA's job to find that family for each and every one of them. We have to find where their red thread ends. We have to find the families that will help them soar to new heights. We have been able to match 18 of the 30 children so far. We have 12 more who are still waiting. Could you be a parent to one of those children? Could their dream of having a family be shared by your dream of having a child? Were you meant to see this site and find your child? Find out...contact me for more information on the children, or view them on the ASIA website: http://www.asiadopt.org/waiting-children/current-waiting-children

Urgent Matters!!!







When children in the orphanage system turn 14 in China, they are no longer eligible for adoption. This can leave them in pretty diar straights regarding their futures. We have several children in our Hope Journey program that are in danger of this happening to them. Sweet Sherry turns 14 in August. Sensitive Skyler turns 14 in June! Gregarious George turns 14 in August as well. These children deserve to have families to call their own, to love, to always be there for them, and to give them the opportunities they won't have if they age out of the system in China. Please help us find the families for these children that I know must be out there somewhere. Someone must be willing to fight to bring these kids home before they turn 14! There must be families out there who feel these children would bring them happiness. Please feel free to pass on this information and anyone interested is welcome to contact me: marcisk@asiadopt.org

Thank you to everyone who has helped to advocate for these children! Your work is immeasurable. Thank you also to the families coming forward to take a chance on these children.
