Family, the most important unit of our society, means so much; security, love, compassion and togetherness. Each member of our family, be it parents, grandparents, siblings, or even cousins, enrich our lives in diverse ways and thereby help us become a better person.
However, there are few unfortunate ones who enter this world only to be deprived of this privilege. These innocent children, who have lost their parents, long for a family. On the other hand, there are couples who long to have children but unable to due several reasons. In such a scenario, adoption is a process that comes as a ray of hope for both the children and willing couples ready to welcome them into their family fold. A Russian social project called “Children’s Question” shared “Before – After” photos of 12 such children who were adopted by loving families and now live happily with them.
