It’s quite difficult to be concise when dealing in such matters as changing the world. This is my valiant effort.

Eight years ago I was changed. Something was born in me that fateful night, when I heard the statistic that pierced my heart and set things into motion.

85% of children in “the system” after the age of SIX, will never be adopted.

I challenge you to ponder that for a brief moment.

Please see this article for the detailed account.
