Camp KidsHope

Camp KidsHope, a three-week camp sponsored by Adoptions Abroad, a non-profit, licensed adoption agency that provides potential parents "an opportunity to host and enjoy the experience of taking Russian children into their home" will be held in Houston this summer.  Twenty-five Russian orphans, ages 6-12, will participate in the program.  

Adoptions Abroad President Jan Melis said that most of the children, are available for adoption. 

“Adoption is a word that means hope to children without hope,” Melis said.  “Camp KidsHope has made that hope a reality for over 130 children who have been adopted through the camp” 

Melis said that Camp KidsHope is in need of adults to host the children in their home for three weeks. 

"The children need families that have a heart to embrace them forever," Melis said. 

An informational meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on Monday, May 16 at Gateway Community Church in Clear Lake.
