Sonia Paz Baron-Vine tried to adopt Ela but was prevented by two governments. She tried to bring Ela to the US on a short term humanitarian visa but was prevented. With Sonia in the US some wonderful people in Ukraine began creating a family for Ela and became a safety net for her.

Ela is a beautiful young lady, a good student in her vocational school and is loved. We are so very proud of her and love her very much.

There are many wonderful orphans in Ukraine like Ela. You also could help to form a forever family for one of them.
