Our agency is registered by the Government of China and licensed by the state of California. We have worked with China since 1992. We provide lots of humanitarian aid to help China financially, and by sending donations such as vitamins, toys, children's supplies, clothes, shoes and first aid supplies. If there is a large discrepancy in ages between spouses, in China some cases can be individually considered.

In some cases the children have had skin rashes, parasites or scabies.
