In recent years, Superkids has been able to meet hundreds of children and provide additional information to prospective adoptive parents. However, Superkids has a long history that includes other types of important child welfare support.
Superkids started over 10 years ago as a humanitarian aid initiative. In the early days, therapists and doctors traveled to China, Ethiopia, and Colombia to train caregivers, assist in providing therapies for children, and deliver expensive therapeutic devices. We now have an opportunity to again help to provide much needed therapeutic support to children in the XinYu orphanage in China. We are hoping our Superkids followers will consider helping with this initiative.

XinYu is an orphanage that Superkids has visited several times. Even though one-to-one partnerships are no longer part of the China adoption landscape, Superkids is committed to maintaining our support of Xin Yu and continuing our relationship with them. XinYu is in a small, rural area and has fewer resources than other orphanages in big cities. But they have a desire to provide quality care, including therapeutic support for the children residing there.
