FCC National Appeal

Helping Children in more than 90 orphanages

Last Revised: 1/25/04

Families with Children from China (FCC) is committed to fulfilling the promise made by so many adoptive families—to never forget the children in China who may never be adopted.

Today, FCC programs play a vital, day-to-day role in the lives of orphanage children across China, from surgeries that save lives, to schooling that empowers minds. . . from playgrounds and libraries, to Grandmas and foster care.

FCC programs are implemented by our partners in China who are committed to the care of orphanage children. Our financial support comes from adoptive families and friends around the world— including more than 30 local FCCs. Our programs have helped children in more than 90 orphanages.

Because FCC sends 100% of the funds raised to China, every dollar makes a difference. Every contribution is a gift from the heart to children none of us may ever meet, but all of us know very well. . . children who have lost their families. . . children who call the orphanage their home.

FCC is able to help so many children in so many orphanages so cost-effectively by partnering closely with institutions in China. FCC programs are implemented primarily with the Amity Foundation, a widely respected nongovernmental organization based in Nanjing, and through the Foundation for Chinese Orphanages, which works with Adoption Affairs Offices in provinces where FCC projects are underway.

Every Dollar Counts

FCC sends 100% of each dollar it receives to China. The programs we support have helped thousands of children in more than 90 orphanages in 16 provinces

$100 supports a child in school for a full year
$250 supports a Grandma for six months
$300-$450 supports a child in foster care for a full year
$500+ pays for a cleft palate repair or other surgery
