Support KidSave and Help Miracles Happen. Every Summer.
 
Kidsave,s  Summer Miracles Program enables orphaned children ages 5 to 11 to 
travel to the  US and Canada, live with families and attend day camp. The 
program gives  families who may be concerned about the problems of adopting 
an older child a  chance to meet, get to know and in the best-case scenario, 
fall in love with a  child. The program gives prospective parents an 
opportunity to see and evaluate  first-hand the challenges and rewards of 
adopting an older  child.
 
In 1999 and  2000 Kidsave and adoption agency partners placed 432 children - 
96 percent of  children who participated in the program. Generally, 85 to 90 
percent of  children who participate in the program find homes easily through 
the program.  The remaining 10 to 15 percent require more work.
 
Kidsave  believes every child deserves a family. We are committed to placing 
all children  who participate in the Summer Miracles Program in permanent 
families or  family-like environments.
 
We are looking  for families to host children, and for others who want to 
help us make the camp  program happen for these 250 children.   As a 
non-profit organization, Kidsave depends on donations to raise the  money to 
bring these children here and find them families.  Please call Tonya Hoppe at 
281.286.8948  or tonya@tonya.cc to get involved in Houston,s  Kidsave 
program.
