My Wife was adopted, might be an option?
But we support kids overseas (Kenya and Eithiopia) that my Son calls them my Rent a Kids...kind of fun.
She is a great kid already!

Nah, we thought about it but at my age now...Probably not a thing. Besides the adoption process here is mental, as in convolute, costly and time consuming. Nah, we accept our fate and pour our love into cats and our niece and nephew.
Understood, I am retired myself...that is why I only do rent a kids right now.

Rent-a-kids - Could be a good business idea!
I have enjoyed them. The group in Kenya sent me a video of a happy birthday song, it makes me smile to watch it.
The Girl in Eithiopia has grown from a skinny 6 year old, to a beautiful 19 year old Lady! I was able to send her cash for a trousseau for when she gets married, I wish I could go....

My eldest brother (not on steem) and his wife part own a company that offers gainful employment to underprivileged Kenyan's, many of which would have terribly difficult lives. It must feel very rewarding for you to help in your way also.
That is excellent! I support a Christian school in Kissi Kenya. I am paying for kids Orphaned by AIDs that Kenya abandons.
I want to build a better building for this school, with an eventual dormotory for the orphans. The Man running the school doesn't know about the dorm yet, LOL! The building I put in is a sheet metal space now, but I want a rammed earth block wall to replace the tin. These kids are beautiful, and their laughter (in such dire straits) is infectious!
I hope to begin on the new walls, in the next three months!

So many people do magnanimous things, like you here, and yet there's always more to do, and more people who cold be doing it. Seems like you're on the right track to make a real difference to the kids.
