A Child Waits Foundation

Our Mission, Purpose and History

​



Mission Statement


​Purpose

​​
Our mission is to help prevent children
from  living  their   entire  childhood  in
international   orphanages  without  the  
warmth   and   love   of  a  family.   Every
child  deserves  a  family and our goal is
to  unite  children   waiting  for  parents,
with   parents  ​ who   are   committed   to
love, nurture and care for their children.


1. To increase the number of children who are adopted internationally by making available grants and low interest loans to families to help with some of the cost of adoption.
 
2. To decrease the stress that families feel during the hectic and  financially difficult time prior to traveling and bringing home their child.
3. To help change a child's future from one without hope to one with many possibilities. 


History of A Child Waits 

A Child Waits Foundation is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) charitable foundation, formed in 1998 by Cynthia and Randolph Nelson.  In 1995 we adopted a son and daughter from Russia and in 2001 a daughter from Romania.  After we returned from Russia, friends, relatives and  strangers met our children and expressed  an interest in adopting but could not proceed because of the high cost of adoption.  This motivated us to form the foundation to help prospective parents bridge the cost of adoption.
