Yulia is a modest and shy girl. At school, her favorite classes are Chemistry and Biology. In Chemistry, she likes solving the problems, and Biology seems interesting to her as there she can learn interesting facts about human beings.

The girl takes acrobatics classes – she can do cartwheels, handstands and even walk on her hands, and is proud of her skills.

Yulia has a favorite Ukrainian singer – Tina Karol. Of course, the biggest dream of the girl is to go to Tina’s concert.

The girl would like to become a waitress. She says that’s because this way she can do good to people, bring them food, take care of them, so that they would be thankful to her.

Of course, as all other children, Yulia dreams about a family – a real family, where everybody is kind, where no one will abuse you, where people talk to each other openly and sincerely, love and support each other.

If you are interested in adopting, please read the memo to the potential adoptive parents, guardians, and foster parents; you can also contact Children’s Affairs' service of the Zaporozhia State Administration by telephone (061) 239-01-56.

Other children who dream of finding a family

If for some reason you are currently not able to adopt (for example, you are a student and do not have a family of your own yet) you are still able to help children at a boarding school (an orphanage) with your financial support. Ways you can help include: planning and participating in excursions and trips for children; visiting a child in an orphanage; or helping purchase developmental toys, books, construction sets, and sports equipment.
