HIV+, 10+

The Reece’s Rainbow HIV Family Coordinator & Support Liaison explains the medical aspects of living with a child with HIV.

HIV is a virus that claims many innocent lives when children do not have access to antiretroviral medications. Fortunately, it is treatable and the children who have access to meds and adhere to their treatment have good long-term prognosis. Children born to women with the virus have a chance of becoming HIV positive due to mother-to-child-transmission. These children are innocent carriers of the virus. The children you see below are currently living in institutions. Sadly, if they end up aging out of institutional life, there is a high likelihood they will be ill on the streets in a life of crime.

New laws in the US and Canada allow for these children to be adopted. Being in a loving family helps them access medical care and gives them the opportunity to have a normal, healthy, productive life. They can go to college, get married, give birth to healthy babies and live long enough to meet their grandchildren. To learn more about adopting and parenting a child living with HIV, visit ProjectHopeful.org

*Your gift will serve ALL of the children, as 10% of each waiting child donation is shared with our Voice of Hope fund as well!

Vlad

Boy, Born September 22, 1999

From our facilitator who has visited with him: HIV. Vlad is very healthy and has the most striking green eyes!  His life story is very typical.   The  boy doesn't have brothers and sisters, the mother  died.  Super boy. Physically developed perfectly well.   By the fact very healthy, practically never ill. He is very fond of English, reads children stories without a dictionary, speaks  good English.   The boy is very communicative, always optimistic.   He is very supportive with friends and very polite and obedient with the teachers and caregivers.  Dreams about obtaining a family.
 
 

***Vlad is also an OLDER CHILD, and will have no opportunities if he ages out. His "orphan and HIV status" will follow him the rest of her life.  Please give Vlad a chance to grow up knowing the love of a family and having basic the opportunities that he deserves. ***

Larisa

Guardian Angel

Girl, Born December 12, 1998

 

From our facilitator who has visited with her:

HIV. She is very healthy. The girl doesn’t have brothers and sisters. Her mother abandoned her at the delivery house,  the father was registered after the mother’s words.  She is very fond of studying English.  The girl is very creative, loves to do  different things with her own hands. She is very responsible, communicative, among children is very supportive  but  sometimes she is emotional.

***Larisa is also an OLDER CHILD, and is at high risk of aging out with nowhere to go. Her options for jobs will be extremely limited because her “orphan and HIV status” will follow her the rest of her life.  Please give Larisa a chance to grow up with love and opportunities. ***

This lovely girl has waited far too long for a family of her own.  Wouldn't it be great to help her find a home before it's too late and she ages out of the system?
