What is the SOLUTION?

Myself & others having fun with the girls at the orphanage 

IF I HAD A MILLION DOLLARS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM: 

• I would set up a "scholarship" type of program so to speak that would take the financial burden of adoption away for these willing families. Families could apply for this and they would receive a sum of money to help pay for all the fees
• I would also set up counseling program to help these families both before and after they receive their new member of the family, adjusting to a new life can be difficult for everyone so to ensure a smooth transition, counseling is always helpful.
• I would work on getting legislation passed to make the adoption process smoother for all parties, cut the cost, and the time involved. If the process became easier, a larger number of families would be willing to adopt both domestic and foreignly.
• I would raise awareness for adoption so more people are more educated on the topic, leading them to be more interested in it! With more knowledge on the topic, people would see what a special and important thing adoption is!
• Hopefully with all of these solutions, children could finally find their forever families!
