A group of waiting families and concerned individuals has organized an online petition to provide support and encouragement to the Government of Nepal in their continuing efforts to improve their adoption system and allow for orphaned children to have the care and love of a permanent family.

We need your immediate assistance to encourage countries with adoption programs in Nepal, including the US, Italy, Spain, France and others to support, encourage, and assist the Government of Nepal in its ongoing efforts to improve their adoption program practices and help children find permanent families.

Somewhere in the world, a child loses a parent every 2.2 seconds. Globally, there are approximately 14 million orphans, with the vast majority (approx 9 million) living in Africa.

These children are among the most vulnerable in the world. They have decreased access to education, healthcare and possibilities for future employment. They are at increased risk of living in poverty, working in exploitative child labour, and becoming victims of abuse.

Orphaned children have no parents to ensure their needs are met, to protect them, or to care for them.

Someone needs to care for these children, we can't leave 14 million children to raise themselves!

I'm 19 and come from a nice family and have always been told to look out for my family and for people who need your help so this is what I'm doing.

There are 75 children at mogilino and four of these children stick out like a sore thumb to me.

The 1st child is called vasky who is around the age of 12 or 13 and she went there as a healthy child at the age of seven, but we don't no if she has been abandoned there or her parents died,the medical care for her is non-existent as she has formed a bone disease from a broken leg which was not even recognised by the trained nurse! and the carers who look after all the children at mongilino, she cries out in pain when she has her nappy changed as she is so badly malnutritioned she cant walk so now she is bed ridden to the extent she cant even straighten her legs, and all they did for her broken leg which she broke months ago was to put a custom made splint on her leg and wrapped around with some sort of bandage(or cloth).

The next child is called milan who is around the age of 18 and is deaf but that is all that is wrong with him, but they treat him like he has a mental illness,which he didn't have when he first arrived there,but now he has to be sedated as he is a very dominant male and the carers find him threatening but love it when they make him do the chores in the home. he rocks with frustration but he actually has a girlfriend in there called didi.

DiDi is also a young girl aged around 17 that lives at the home she is mildly autistic and she also has alot to talk about but no one wants to listen to her, she always asks the carers ''is my mummy coming to get me soon'' and they tell her yes didi on the 17th of September but they know that her mummy wont be coming to get her at all they lie to her everyday and her mother has actually written to the director who manages the home and says i don't want to hear anything from her i don't want to know her.

WHY DO PEOPLE DO GIGS, LIKE LIVE AID! I THINK WE ARE HELPING AFRICA TOO MUCH. WHY NOT HELP OUR NEIGHBOURING COUNTRIES LIKE BULGARIA? PEOPLE OF THE EU WE COULD RAISE THOUSANDS AND CHANGE MORE PEOPLE'S LIVES.
