Save A Child Foundation

This story begins in the summer of 2007. Janet and I have talked for some time about the possibility of adoption. We learned about the opportunity to host a child in our home through a terrific organization called Save A Child http://www.saveachild.cc/

Vern and Nannette Garrett are a wonderful family from Murray Utah who started bringing children from orphanages in Ukraine to homes in Utah starting in 2005. We happened to see a news clip on KSL 5 here in Salt Lake in the fall of 2006 that told the story about several children coming from Unkrainian orphanages to stay in homes here in Utah for 3 weeks. We quickly wrote the information down from the clip so we could contact them at a later date. That call lead to several discussions with the Garretts and the opportunity to host a child in our home during the fall of 2007.
