The most common question now is: How can I help?
With every problem, there is a solution
somewhere, waiting to be discovered!
For my problem, which is that there are so many
children waiting to be adopted, AS OF NOW there are already several solutions
that could help these children in different aspects, such as:
•
Of course, Adopting these kids is the best, most
ideal solution! But that isn't feasible for everyone so there are other
options that still benefit these children
•
Another thing you could do is sponsor a child,
which means sending them $ every month that goes to their
education, food, healthcare, clothing and more!
Even though adoption IS expensive, it IS
attainable! There are grants and tax credits that the government offers. There
are also fundraisers you can do, or even get donations from people. A couple at
my church adopted a sibling group of FIVE from Peru!! (below) Even though they
already had 2 children of their own. This was achievable by God's provision and
generosity of others! It IS possible, if it is something you are passionate
about, it is within reach
I actually sponsor a little girl who lives
in an orphanage in Peru, her name is Allison and she is 13 years old (below). I
met Allison 4 years ago when I went on a mission trip to Peru, and
we immediately connected. When I returned my first thought was "What
can I do to help her?" So when I was presented with the opportunity to
sponsor her I was in! I send her $40 a month and I know a lot of us are broke
college students, but if I can do it, so can you! And we could all spare a
small amount of $ a month to change a child's life. Take it from me, it's
completely worth it, I wouldn't change a thing!
