Very neat video. They look happy. Do these children ever get adopted?

[HeavensFamilyUSA]

Unfortunately, the Myanmar government doesn't allow foreign adoptions, and most of the people in Myanmar are too poor to adopt children. 95% of the population lives on less than $1 a day.

[aungnnn]

this is my town.i am glad to know there is such a kind of program supporting an orphan in it. That is a great work. actually it is not true that 95% of the populations are living on 1$ a day. That would not come from a right reliable source.

That's my hometown and I don't even know about this. I'm so gonna help them.

I Love Myanmar sooo much! Such beautiful children, and what a fantastic home they now have. I can't wait to go back next year:)
