Because of the nature of life in an orphanage, older children from institutions will have delays in development and may have other medical or psychological issues that will require attention and care, both emotionally and financially.

I am interested in hosting a child in the Summer Miracles program and am aware that all of the children will have issues that will need time and attention.

I will also accept a child with a known
medical problem
development problem
psychological problem
