Buy American, Adopt American

UNICEF estimates that there are about 740,000 children without parental custody in Russia.


Children's Defense Fund estimates there are over 400,000 children in foster care in the U.S.  Unfortunately, the Children's Bureau is unable to estimate the number of legal orphans in foster care because states do not maintain data on termination of parental rights of both parents.  This number (104,000) does not include youth in juvenile institutions, who are also considered children without parental custody.  

So, why is it these Christian adoption organizations are not advocating the adoption of children who are U.S. citizens?  Perhaps, it is an issue of inequity.  Perhaps it is a tax credit.

Support America.  Adopt U.S. Kids
