Linus

We have Linus' file! He is 5 years old and has a sweetness that is impossible to ignore. Read about one dad who met him here.

Linus has developmental delays. He needs a family to see him for the special little boy he is! He needs a family to help him reach his full potential.

He loves to drive little cars around and loves to color. He started school at the orphanage recently and his teacher said he is making good progress. He speaks in simple sentences and communicates his needs well. When asked about his favorite subject he said it is "singing". He dresses himself and takes care of his own self care.

He is described by his caregiver as a happy child who gets along well with the other children.

Could this sweet little boy be your son? Please contact us at superkids@gladney.org for more information.

Precious Parker!

Oh my goodness, y'all! PARKER!!

Yep! There is a reason for all caps. JUST LOOK AT THAT LITTLE FACE!

Parker just turned 3. He has a treated condition that we will be glad to tell you about privately, but basically he is a very healthy, active little boy!

He attends preschool where he has learned to sing and dance. I laughed a little when I read in his file that "his habit of hygiene has improved". He is a 3 year old boy, after all!

Parker needs a family! Could he be your son? Please contact us a superkids@gladney.org for more information. We are looking for a family who is logged in or nearing dossier completion to be matched with Parker.

Gladney's Taiwan Waiting Children Video

It is time to introduce our Taiwan waiting children!! Please contact our Taiwan caseworker, Mary Chapman, at mary.chapman@gladney.org for information about any of these children or about the Taiwan program. 

Sweet, Sweet Sonnet

Please share Sonnet's video! She is 4 years old and has Apert Syndrome. She is such a sweetheart! Just look at this little cutie!

Dory {Taiwan}

We recently received 7 year old Dory’s file from one of our partner agencies in Taiwan and boy is she a cutie! We have several (adorable) photos and a couple of videos – I wish we could share them publicly!

Dory is described by her foster mother as being considerate, sympathetic, and active. She can be shy and timid around new people at first. She is in the first grade and likes playing with her friends at school. She does not like to be the center of attention though!

She loves to listen and dance to music. She enjoys drawing and her profile includes a couple of pictures she shared with the social worker. She also loves going on outings and talking about her day at school during dinner.

Dory is healthy but her most recent medical report showed high blood pressure and low levels of MCV which could indicate anemia. She will have follow-up tests completed to monitor these two issues.

We hope to meet Dory during our next Superkids trip! Could Dory be your daughter? To review Dory’s full profile, including her photos and videos, please contact our Taiwan program caseworker, Mary Chapman, at mary.chapman@gladney.org.
