CRI and YOS need families to say yes—and December is closer than it feels!
CRI turns 14 while he's here this December. Imagine his first American birthday: candles, a cake around your kitchen table, and people excited to celebrate him. He's active, social, sweet with younger kids and animals, and he lights up when you encourage him.
YOS is 11, and he calls the family he hopes for someday his "family of the heart." Soccer is his happy place: he plays it, draws it, makes up stories about soccer players. He also loves music and playing instruments, and brings imagination and energy to everything he enjoys.
Both boys need a family willing to open their home for three weeks this December, to make room at the table, cheer them on, and help advocate for the forever family they deserve.
