Christopher, age 10

“People should know that I like long sleeve shirts, cheeseburgers, and chocolate chip mint ice cream. I want a family that is nice to me, a mom or a dad that is kind, kids I can play with, and a puppy.”

Christopher’s exuberance about being adopted is hard to beat! Whether extolling the merits of esteemed Pokemon characters or of basketball superstar Kobe Bryant, Christopher’s crisp, ten-year-old-boy energy is a breath of fresh air. With extraordinary resilience, this plucky, hard-working child has transformed rough circumstances into a hopeful opportunity. Christopher’s sweetness,  his concern for others, his inquisitive spirit, and his lion-hearted courage have grabbed all of our hearts. He will grab yours as well. Please consider adopting Christopher.
