Mission
Statement and Costs
Unlike
other large websites dedicated to adoption, we are not a commercial enterprise,
simply grinding out content to generate more advertising revenue. Our
goals are to educate adoptive parents, promote international adoption, focus on
special needs children as well as those who are blessed with good health, match
families with humanitarian programs and promote a community and connectivity of
adoptive families. To that end, we are selective with the agencies we
work with (see requirements
below), however, we do not charge high prices for our services. For just
$65 per month, payable via check either semi-annually or annually, you will
receive the full benefits outlined above

Private
Child Listings
In addition to our current
child-listing options of Public & Password Protected, we have now added an
option that you may use to find families for EVERY child: Private Child
Listings.
Our PCL feature allows adoption
professionals to advocate for children without listing that child's information
on the internet. This feature should be chosen only
for children who cannot be photo or text listed on our Waiting Child
Photolisting.
How Does Private Child
Listings Work?
-
RainbowKids.com maintains the
largest National Database of Pre-Adoptive Families. Each family has
registered their detailed information voluntarily.
-
When a child is added by an
agency using the PCL option, this child's information is matched to family
profiles. Specifically, families who are open to the child's age, race, gender,
special needs, sibling status, and location. However, much of this detailed
information is NOT provided directly to the family.
-
These families will immediately
receive an email with the following non-identifying information:
Child's ID #
Child's DOB (this may be a close approximation)
Child's Special Needs
Short Description
Agency name and agency's contact (email)
Families are not provided with
child's race, geographic location, gender, or other identifying information. If
a family is interested in finding out further information, they must contact the
agency directly. No information about the child will be listed on the
website.
Private Child Listings
is an innovative advocacy
tool allowing all children, everywhere, the opportunity to find a family.
