Visit to a Cambodian Orphanage
While visiting Siem Reap I had the honor to visit a Cambodian Orphanage. Out of 100 residents, only 8 children actually showed an interest in living in America. My research showed that there is a moratorium for adopting children from Cambodia after Angelina Jolie had some problems clearing her adoption of her first child. So, those interested in adoption from Cambodia need to do their research to find out if it is possible to take your newly adopted child into the US.
These children were delightful, sweet and there was a lot of love surrounding them.
I gave donations directly to students who were brave enough to meet with me.
It was by far one of the most touching and meaningful things I did on this trip.
