Meet a Playful Singer: A child waiting this December

December 14, 2019 by Staff Contributor

A 12 year old who waits internationally for adoption smiles to the camera.We’ve been advocating for this adorable 12 year old for three years. We must find a family for her before she turns 14 and becomes ineligible for adoption. Can you help?

With an outgoing personality, HB loves to play with other children. Each day you can find her going to and from school with her best friend, afterward they will finish their homework and play together. She’s also a natural performer and often learns new songs and dances from the older children. The annual New Year Gala at the orphanage offers her a fun outlet for this showmanship each year.

GENERAL ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS

All applicants must be at least 30 years old. For heterosexual married couples, there can be no more than 50 years’ difference between the youngest parent and the child. Single women are eligible and cannot have more than 45 years’ difference between themselves and the child. Applicants cannot have serious physical or mental health concerns. Eligibility requirements vary so please inquire to discuss individual circumstances and eligibility.

LEARN MORE ABOUT HB

There are many photos and videos to share with eligible families who inquire. If you would like to learn more about HB, please contact [email protected] and reference 219-02. Her adoptive family will be eligible for a $10,000 Child-Specific Grant (exp. 1/31/2020).  Families may also qualify for additional grants through CH/LSS and Brittany’s Hope Foundation.

FINANCING ADOPTION

There are a number of resources available to families who would like to adopt but are concerned about financing. If you would like to learn more, we welcome you to inquire about the Adoption Support Fund and view our infographic of fundraising ideas.

Meet oTHER WAITING CHILDREN

During December we are advocating for 12 children who currently wait for families. We appreciate any time you take to get to know these children and consider whether your family, or a family you know, could be theirs.
