Child’s i Foundation has had a busy summer, getting the word out about domestic adoption in Uganda and trying to find new adoptive families for children who desperately need them.
Our media campaign launched at the beginning of July, and to learn more about the campaign and the response that we’ve received to it, read this blog by our Project Director Lucy Buck.
We were proud to see one of our adoptive families featured on WBS News’ coverage of World Humanitarian Day recently.
