Polly is two.

She's been
abandoned but
Polly is not
an orphan

Every week, children like Polly are abandoned in Uganda, left to fend for themselves in ditches and empty houses.
In fact, 80% of abandoned children in orphanages have family. We believe all children, like Polly, should grow up in a loving family.

Childs i Foundation
reunites abandoned children with their families,
instead of sending them to orphanages...

After spending a few months in our transitional home regaining her strength, we located Polly's family. They welcomed her into their home with open arms.

If we hadn't found Polly's family, we would have found her a new family in Uganda.

We find foster and adoptive families in Uganda for children life Polly where they can grow up loved and cherished in a family.
