SMALL MIRACLES INTERNATIONAL, INC. is a private, not-for-profit corporation with 501c3 status. We have been licensed in the state of Oklahoma as a child-placement agency since 1985. SMI offers services to birth and adoptive or potential adoptive families.

The primary focus of this agency is intercountry adoption with the placement of foreign-born children into homes here in the United States. Our concentration of efforts is in Guatemala, C.A. where we have been working since 1986. Outside the United States there continues to be, in underdeveloped countries, large numbers of children for whom adoption is the only chance for a permanent, loving family.

Currently, SMI is able to find families for 75 to 100 children each year. The largest number of children placed are those under 12 months of age at referral, followed by toddlers, preschoolers, and older and/or special needs children. The numbers of children placed is limited only by the number of qualified adoptive families.

Children available are from both the Relinquishment and Abandonment Programs. More children come from a program where child care is in a foster home but some children available reside in small orphanages. Formal referral of specific children are not made until the family is documented and has US INS approval (I-171H), In the case of children from the Abandonment program formal referrals are not made until the child is legally free. Our Program Fees are $20,000. A complete breakdown of this and other fees can be obtained by requesting an Information Packet by phone, fax or e-mail.

ADOPTION IS NOT FOR ALL: For many children adoption is neither an appropriate nor possible option. For this reason, SMI has always been involved in other child welfare programs and services to assist/support children in their country-of-origin providing services that will enable a family to remain intact. Our Foundation funds many activities such as orphanage support and a Nutrition Program feeding 200 plus children each day. Our biggest project is the Medical Teams which travel twice annually to Guatemala to provide surgery and treatment to children otherwise without access to medical care.

Small Miracles International, Inc. has a constant need for families open to normal, healthy baby boys. See the cuties that are currently looking for their forever home. Are you that family?

allenOne very special little boy also needs a home: Allan was born July 8, 2006 and was relinquished to a private orphanage on September 22, '06. He is diagnosed with spina bifida and hydrocephalus. As you can see he is an adorable little boy who is doing well. He has a shunt that will need to be replaced as he grows. Any potential adoptive family MUST have excellent insurance coverage and be willing to investigate services available in their locale.

The legal fees are being totally WAIVED. The fees for Allan's care are to be determined on the basis of the family's ability to pay. THIS child should qualify for any of the programs which offer "scholarships" for adoptions. Additional information is available for potentially qualified families.
