REMEMBERING THE CHILDREN

I'm a long-time admirer of the work done by CCAI.   That includes working to get families together in adoptive homes and trying to better the lives of those children still seeking parents in PRC.  But until recently, we were "cheering from the sidelines" so to speak.

I happened to hear a radio report of the rapidly increasing price of rice on the world market.  The price has more than doubled since the beginning of the year and continues to increase.  Coincidently, we received one of CCCF's publications that mentioned The LOOK Project.  I got to thinking about the impact of the rising price of food on the children they work to help.

I went to the CCCF website and found The LOOK Project for older children, those whose chances of placement are very low despite all they have to offer.  It made me wish I had the ability to enlarge our family further, but time and economics make that nearly impossible.

For the younger children, there is a (CCCF) program that allows participants to sponsor a child for a monthly contribution.   Even though no similar program exists (yet) for older children, I decided to contribute to LOOK as if there was such a program. (Editor's note:  this inspiring donor set up her account to send an automatic monthly contribution to support The LOOK Project's general fund for the children) 

I hope others can find a way to help make the lives of the older children a little better with a regular contribution to The LOOK Program.
