Welcome!
We’re delighted you’re considering opening your heart and home to an older child in need. On the following pages, you’ll not only see compelling photographs of beautiful children available for adoption, you’ll get a glimpse of their unique personalities as well. Some of the kids like sports; some like art; some are outgoing; some are shy. But ALL of the children need a safe, nurturing Forever Home where they are given the opportunity to be themselves and receive unconditional love and support. For many reasons – including neglect, abuse and abandonment – these kids have found themselves in the foster care system. Adopting a foster child is not cause for concern—like all kids, these children long for a normal life. They need love. They need families. They need YOU.
All for the children,
Jaymes Sime, President & CEO Child Saving Institute
Meet Braxton! A 16-year-old young man who loves to watch videos on YouTube and browse the internet. His interests include pirates, matchbox cards and letter magnets. Braxton also loves to go to the park where he enjoys running around and swinging, visiting the trampoline park, swimming and spending time at the splash pad. He also enjoys spending time with his friends! Braxton is a helper! He likes to go grocery shopping, clean his room, set the dinner table and clean up his dishes. He is also learning to do his own laundry. He is affectionate and will express love by holding your hand, giving fist bumps, high fives and hugs. Since Braxton is autistic, he needs additional encouragement to interact with other people and assistance in finding ways to stay busy.
