Markel Banks

is adopting a child from Latvia

Help us bring our "A" home to stay! We are the Banks family! We have four boys currently, ages 16,15,13, and 10. In December we participated in an orphan hosting program. We brought a 9 year old little boy into our family for Christmas. We had no idea that we would form such an undeniable bond within just a few short weeks. "A" fit into our family like the missing puzzle piece. We are so happy to embark on this journey to bring him home!! When we first looked at "A"s bio, we read that he had been bullied all his life due to the color of his skin. As an inter-racial family, our heart strings were immediately tugged toward this handsome little face. The more we got to know him, and his jokester personality, the more we realized just how well he fit into our family! It is hard for us to imagine how this little charmer is still an orphan. We know that he must be destined to be ours. Please help us raise the remainder and bring him home to stay!
