How to See the Children Available Through Reece's Rainbow
Updated
To view the children, go to reecesrainbow.org and use the “See The Children” link on the homepage. That section is the site’s entry point for profiles of orphans with special needs who are waiting for international adoption. The homepage also offers “Sponsor A Child” and “Support A Family” for readers who want to help rather than browse profiles.
What the site provides
Reece’s Rainbow describes itself as special needs adoption support. Its homepage highlights two connected purposes: advocating and fundraising for the international adoptions of orphans with special needs, and letting visitors follow families who are adopting.
| Homepage element | What it is for |
|---|---|
| See The Children | Viewing children who are waiting for adoption |
| Sponsor A Child | Contributing to fundraising for a child’s adoption |
| Support A Family | Supporting families who are adopting |
| Follow our Families | Reading adoption stories and updates |
The site also displays the milestone “TWENTY YEARS & 2419+ children HOME!”, which indicates the organization’s long-running adoption support work.
Steps to view waiting children
- Open reecesrainbow.org in a browser.
- On the homepage, select See The Children.
- Browse the profiles shown in that section. Each profile is intended to represent a child with special needs who is waiting for adoption.
- If you want to help a specific child without adopting, return to the homepage and use Sponsor A Child.
- If you want to follow adoption journeys, use Follow our Families, which the homepage presents alongside the interview feature with Sofia Sanchez.
Expected result: You reach the waiting-children section and can review the profiles the site makes available. The homepage does not state how many profiles are listed at any one time, so the number you see may differ from the “2419+ children HOME” milestone, which refers to children who have already been adopted.
Following families and stories
The homepage includes a Follow our Families heading and a link for an interview with Sofia Sanchez. These features are for readers who want adoption stories and family updates rather than only a list of waiting children. Use them after viewing the children if you want context on how families experience the process.
Common sticking points
- Looking for a searchable database: The homepage evidence points to a “See The Children” section, not a described search tool. Start there rather than assuming advanced filters exist.
- Confusing sponsorship with adoption: “Sponsor A Child” is a fundraising action. It is separate from viewing profiles or applying to adopt.
- Expecting current prices or eligibility rules on the homepage: The available site evidence does not include fee amounts, login requirements, or country-specific eligibility rules. Check the relevant section of the site or contact the organization for those details rather than inferring them from the homepage.
For a first visit, the practical path is simple: open the site, choose See The Children to browse profiles, then use Sponsor A Child, Support A Family, or Follow our Families if your goal shifts from viewing to supporting or following an adoption.
