๐?: China Care is a foundation that works with orphans and adopted children in two major ways: 1) On a fundraising level, it works to send money back to China for the children and orphanages, i.e., infant formula and diapers, air conditioners, medical care/surgeries. 2) On a playgroup level here in the U.S., it works with families that have adopted children to increase the children's knowledge about their cultural heritage while helping them to build community with each other.
