The Adoption Exchange: Tim's Story

As a young teen, Tim had been in foster care for years. He was adopted with his younger brother, but the family relinquished Tim back into foster care, separating him from his brother. Faced with rejection, disappointment and the pain of losing his brother, Tim almost gave up hope of ever having a family to call his own. Each year, The Adoption Exchange hosts adoption parties, which offer opportunities for potential adoptive families, waiting children and caseworkers to connect while in a safe, relaxed, fun environment. At an adoption party held at White Fence Farm in August 2012, Tim met the family who would become his own. He was placed with them in December 2012. Tim is very happy and excited to be a wanted and cherished part of his adoptive family. $1 a day will give a teenager a chance to meet potential parents at an adoption party hosted by The Adoption Exchange.
