How can I help? Where would I start?

emma

I was scrolling through my Facebook news feed just now, and my heart lurched when I saw pictures of children in Aleppo. Bloodied, broken, and scared - many of these children lost their families. There are countless young children trying to protect their infant siblings by themselves because their parents were killed. My heart is mourning for these children.

I've always had it on my heart to adopt/foster/care for children without parents. I've always wanted to be a mother. Now that I have one of my own, I know for a fact this is what I was put on this earth to do. I want, with everything in me, to give these children a safe, loving home. Away from viloence, away from bombs and bullets..

Where do I go from here? Is it possible to even adopt a child from Aleppo? Would me taking them from everything they know (country, customs, food, language, etc.) do more harm than good? I live in Texas, so I know there's a lot of disagreements on refugees...so is it even possible?

Any info would be great. Thank yall.
