Appeal from Our Chair

Today, in the United States, there is an inordinately high percentage of minority infants and children waiting for adoption. Minority children are often considered “hard to place” simply because of the color of their skin. While adopting across racial lines should not be entered into lightly, it has been demonstrated that adoptive parents have successfully raised children of racial or ethnic backgrounds other than their own.

The Call to Christian Families

Each year, thousands of adoptions take place in the United States. The best home for any child is a home where Christ is honored and Biblical principals are taught. God calls His people, who are adopted children in His family, to be actively involved in helping orphans. Christians are responsible to reach out to these children. However, many Christian families hesitate to adopt because they fear the cost of adoption is insurmountable for them. Therefore, the MICAH Fund strives to make adoption financially possible for Christian families.

If you have considered opening your heart and home to a little one, please consider saying “yes” to minority adoption. What difference will this make?

A child that may face a life of uncertainty now has a place to call home and someone to call mom and dad.
A couple who have wanted to make their home a place of opportunity and discovery now have a little one to nurture and love.
A community seeking large-scale solutions has changed in the most effective way, one family at a time.

We encourage you to seek out all the wisdom available to make an informed decision. You can start by contacting the MICAH Fund by clicking on the following link: contact. You will be put in touch with adoptive parents who can answer your questions about minority adoption.
