A Child Needs a Family: Sergey S., born in 2008

December 4, 2014, 13:50 7572 Author: Sonia Koshkina, translated by Anya Gvozdyeva www.deti.zp.ua Sergey is a little energy ball. Active play excites him beyond measure. Profile # 0056289

Sergey needs a lot of care and attention to achieve the level expected for his age. Specialists such as special needs expert, speech therapist, psychologist, rehabilitation specialist all work with Sergey and it has a positive effect on him. Sergey has become more emotionally aware, he has better concentration and he has improved his communication skills. However, sitting is still not for him.

Sergey doesn’t come out of his shell very easily, he likes to shut off the world sometimes and prefers to play alone. Still, if he finds something interesting, he will be very hard to tear away from it.

Sergey is very good at differentiating colours and shapes. He is very good at building from blocks or assembling a pyramid. This boy needs caring and patient parents who would be prepared to give him a cozy home which he needs very much.

If you are interested in adopting Sergey, please read the memo to the potential adoptive parents, guardians, and foster parents; you can also contact Children’s Affairs' service of the Zaporozhia State Administration by telephone (061) 239-01-56 and to tell them the number of Sergey's profile accordingly to the orphan list # 0056289.

Other children who dream of finding a family

If for some reason you are currently not able to adopt (for example, you are a student and do not have a family of your own yet) you are still able to help children at a boarding school (an orphanage) with your financial support. Ways you can help include: planning and participating in excursions and trips for children; visiting a child in an orphanage; or helping purchase developmental toys, books, construction sets, and sports equipment.
