Superkids Team

Picture of
Superkids is a humanitarian aid initiative within the Asia Waiting Child Program of the Gladney Center for Adoption. Our goal: to improve the lives of children in Chinese orphanages via adoption advocacy, medical and rehabilitation services. Starting as a tiny team providing services to special needs children in a single facility in Shanghai in 2007, we've grown to a broad coalition of physicians, early childhood development specialists, teachers and volunteers who've aided 500 children in orphanages across China.

XiuXiu {FSL Project}

Posted by Superkids Team on 7/7/17 8:36 AM

XuiXui (XuiXui G-255 On Rainbowkids)  is a gorgeous 10 year old girl who is waiting for a family in China. Last year the CCCWA decided to help agencies get good updates on some children who had been waiting for a while on the shared list. XuiXui is one of the girls who was assigned to Gladney and Superkids volunteers were able to meet her in October. I'd say the photographer did a pretty good job, wouldn't you?

Sweet Baby Lisa

Posted by Superkids Team on 6/28/17 10:37 AM

Update 6/29: I love this community we are part of! Yesterday morning we posted Lisa's post hoping that a family would see how amazing she is and step forward to adopt her. We have had so many inquiries that we worked late last night just to get everyone answered! We are very hopeful that she will be matched quickly. At this point we are creating a list of backup families for her but not sharing her file further. Thank you all!

MATCHED!! Danica {Taiwan}

Posted by Superkids Team on 6/27/17 7:01 AM
MATCHED!!
 
Hiding behind her caregiver, a petite girl came forward. Her name is Danica. Her hair pulled back with a striped shirt and black pants, she waits patiently for her turn with the team. The team starts by asking questions about her such as what she likes and doesn’t like or her favorite food and color.  Danica was very reserved and quiet. When a hard question was asked and she did not know how to answer it she would simply look up and give a sweet smile.

We posted about Hector here, but at the time we did not have photos of him (we did have a video which you can see in the other post). I knew it was definitely worth a whole new blog post when I saw these adorable little photos!

Donald {Taiwan}

Donald took a while to warm up. He looked as if he was sizing all of us volunteers up. He was shy and quiet. Even when he was given Legos, he carefully inspected the box and looked at the instructions before diving into them.

Family Friday {Molly}

Posted by Superkids Team on 6/16/17 8:32 AM

Most of the time we post about matches on Family Friday, but today I want to tell you about Molly. I have taken photos of Molly on 3 different occasions. The first time was in September of 2015. She came bouncing into the room and we all smiled. She was cute and spunky and had that little spark that makes a child really stand out. It was our first time visiting that SWI and we were not sure yet if a partnership would be established between Gladney and the SWI.
