Adoption & Fostering
You can help a child develop and grow up to be an accepted member of the society. Through adoption, you can make the child part of your family forever.
Our Philosophy on Adoption
Every child is an object of our love for God and for humanity. To adopt or foster a baby from Yahweh Run Orphanage Foundation is a journey of the heart. Adopters must be ready to love the child for the rest of their days and be accountable for their success.
"We do not charge money for adoption. Every child is a gift, not a commodity. Be ready to be a good steward of this gift."
