Day 18 - New Babies Need New Sponsors!
There are two new residents of Swallows Nest, one little boy and one little girl. These children were placed in our care by the local orphanage just this week, and we are happy that we will be able to watch them grow and thrive. We have stepped out in faith to say "yes" to these two, and in order to follow through with that commitment we need diapers, formula, nourishing food, clothing and medical care. All of these things are only possible when we have sponsors who partner with us on a monthly basis. Your monthly gift of $25 or more will help us provide the basic necessities and one special ingredient....love. Use the Sponsor button above to become one of the family.
Swallows Nest is a small foster home program located in Henan Province. We specialize in post surgical foster care for special needs babies from birth to age 3 because even the most advanced, life-saving surgery can be wasted without a safe and vigilant environment in the weeks and months after surgery. By partnering with other non-profit organizations that do surgeries for these babies, we are able to provide the care needed to bring them back to full health and help them thrive until an adoptive family comes for them. So we feed, diaper, clothe, and provide an active and loving home for every child, with a special emphasis on making sure they get whatever medical followup is needed. Each time we say "YES" to a child, we realize we are responsible for meeting all his or her needs for approximately two years.
Currently, we have 23 children in four comfortable and cozy apartments in the city of Zhengzhou. We keep each home small with a low number of children on purpose, in order for the children to live in a family type setting until their forever family adopts them.
We appreciate your consideration in helping us do more to provide for the children of Henan Province.
