Deti: - some of the children that need medical
assistance. For many years our hildren were being helped by German charity
organizations, and as a result, survival rates increased tenfold. Lately,
however, a lot of these programs have been cancelled. Currently, the only thing
that is covered is the standard in-patient cytostatic treatment protocols, but
the children urgently need anti-fungal drugs since without the prophylactic
anti-fungal treatment most children contract pulmonary and gastrointestinal
fungal infections. The parents are unable to pay the high medical costs and are
in desperate need of financial support. Thank you for your consideration. We
are looking forward to your help. To see giving record click here. Note: Deti

God's Children - for adoption of Russia children. This Russian
program was established in 1997. We have united more than seventy-five children
with their families over the past four years. AGCI maintains our own staff in Russia and we are currently completing adoptions
in the Kemerovo ,
Birobijan and Primorsky Krai regions. We will be expanding into two additional
regions as soon as additional staff is hired and trained. The orphanages in Russia are well
maintained and the children are well cared for in the regions where we work.
Russian adoptions are not finalized until you have seen the child and declared
in a court of law that you wish to adopt the child. This is a benefit to
families that want to personally observe their child prior to the adoption
becoming final. Children are available for referral at age eight months and up.
Siblings or twins are sometimes available. You may adopt two children that are
not biologically related at the same time.
