Did you know?

• There are 500,000 children in the foster care system within the United States.

• More than 20% of these children are in need of permanent adoptive homes.

• Nearly 60% of all Americans have had a personal experience with adoption, whether it is a family
member or close friend adopting a child, themselves adopting a child or relinquishing a child for adoption.

• There are 143 million orphans in the world today and that number is increasing faster than the rate
of all adoptions.

• Approximately 22,000 adoptions take place every year from countries like Russia, China, Guatemala and
in countries like Vietnam, Ethiopia, and others.

• Adopting children from foster care is virtually free. In addition, a growing number of companies and government agencies offer adoption assistance as part of their employee benefit packages, including time off for maternity/paternity leave, financial incentives, and other benefits. In addition, Congress has made federal tax credits available for foster care adoptions to help offset required fees, court costs, legal and travel expenses.

• 30,000 children die each day for lack of water, food, and basic medical care.
