DENVER -- 7Everyday Hero Linda Webster is among those helping find homes for abandoned children. There’s a Chinese proverb that says: “Nothing is impossible for a willing heart”, and a Colorado adoption agency has found that to be true.There are more than two thousand children now living in Colorado who were born in China. Most were placed with families here thanks to Chinese Children Adoption International, and it started with just a couple of adoption placements in 1992. Before they knew it, they were placing three or four children every working day. Today the Colorado based CCAI is the largest Chinese children adoption agency in the country – having placed more than eight thousand children in all fifty states – children who once faced life in Chinese orphanages.
Linda Webster was led to volunteer at CCAI because of the bond with her daughter, who is now 29 years old. Her daughter would have had no life staying in an orphanage – today she and her husband are both masters degree level school teachers in Fort Collins. Linda spends time at the CCAI at least once a week – helping other families share the same experience that changed her life.To learn more about Chinese Children Adoption International, visit www.chinesechildren.org
