South Africa

My partner and I are hoping to adopt from South Africa and are interested in making contact with others who have done so.
Thanks

Hi Karyn
We are in Ireland. We are currently doing our homestudy. What agency in SA did you use? How did you find them? Is yours a mixed race family (we will be)? How is that? What was the care for orphaned children in SA like? Any suggestions/advice etc most welcome
Thanks
Nuala
