| Laurel Girl, born August 1996  Laurel has arthrogryposis — and look at that beautiful smile! She’s already 15 years old, and has less than 6 months (from January 2012) to be adopted, or she loses all hope for a future. Laurel is blessed to be in a very good older child orphanage for those with mostly physical disabilities. Her orphanage has been supported by many humanitarian aid groups, and offers child sponsorship programs and trips for these children. Laurel does face transfer to an adult mental institution SOON, and at 16 she will no longer legally be able to be adopted at all. We simply can not let this happen to her. Our facilitation team has met Laurel…she is very smart and friendly, and she SO wants a family of her own. Laurel is in a region which often waives the 10 day waiting period! An additional $3000 grant is available to help with Laurel’s adoption (above and beyond her RR funds) Larger families and older parents welcome. Must be home study approved to commit. $8789.31 is available towards the cost of my adoption! Harmony is Asian and perfectly beautiful. She has a huge advantage that is unusual. She goes to school and does really good work. That is just nearly unheard of opportunity. I don't really know what else to tell you except she needs a mama! She wants one in the worst of ways. And if none steps forward soon? ... ugh. |
