Holt meets the needs of children around the world in a diversity of ways, not adoption only. In 2010, Holt served 36, 972 children through all Holt programs.
Holt helps families stay together whenever possible. Through family preservation and family reunification efforts, 3,671 children remained with their families or were reunited with their birth families in 2010.
Holt International is a Christian organization finding and supporting permanent, loving families for children who are orphaned, a bandoned or separated from families, or at serious risk of s eparation. This work is an expression of God’s c ompassion for c hildren. Holt is a global leader in providing services and advocating for the best interest of children, setting the highest ethical practices.
Holt strives to keep children in their birth countries. Last year, 739 children were placed with families through domestic adoption (not including U.S. domestic placements). Children who are older, have medical conditions, or are part of a sibling group often wait longer to be adopted. 169 of these Waiting Children were placed with adoptive families in 2010. Since Holt’s beginning, over 55
years ago, 40,758 children have been placed by Holt with adoptive families in the United
States.

and the God-given opportunity we have to bring hope to children and families. A conversation with one such family touched me greatly. Two years ago, Ejamo and his family were in a desperate state. Through life-changing resources given by Holt and Ejamo’s great courage, his family began to thrive. “Holt helped me provide for my children,” Ejamo told me. “I never want to forget what Holt did for my family.” For me, this powerful moment says it all.
The work we are doing in Ethiopia is a wonderful example of
Holt’s dedication to children all over the world. Holt not only finds families for children, but we work to keep birth families together by providing the support parents need to give their children a safe home environment.
Last year we increased support for Haiti, helping children and
families recover from a devastating earthquake. We brought health care to people in Shinshicho, Ethiopia. We continued to support children in foster families throughout the world until they went home to families. In the future, Holt hopes to do even more for children. Our goal: to see every child in a strong, stable and loving family.
Our 2010 annual report reflects Holt’s achievements and
finances. Each statistic represents the life of a child whose life has been changed, or a family brought back from the brink of despair and poverty.
All this inspiring work is possible because of the support from
