David is 13 years old and is in sixth grade. His favorite subjects in school are mathematics, geography and history. He is also interested in Ancient Rome.

During his free time he likes to watch movies, specifically sci-fi movies. One of his favorite characters and movies is Spider Man due to Spider Man’s bravery and athleticism. David also likes physical actives such as football (“soccer”) and basketball. In football he has the most important position – goalkeeper.

Despite his young age, David has already started to think about his future. He would like to be a builder and help people build their homes.

When looking for friends, David values kindness and one’s willingness to help. David likes to think that he is also a kind and receptive person. He is always looking for ways to help around the house – clean the house and the dishes.

Like many children his age, David would love the opportunity to travel to other countries. David eagerly awaits his new parents that will allow him to grow up in a loving home and realize his dreams.

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.
