Holt International provides care and support to many of the world’s most vulnerable children—those who are orphaned, abandoned, or at serious risk of separation from their family.

Working in local communities around the world, Holt strives to keep children in their families of birth by providing the care and support they need to grow and thrive as a family. For children who do not remain with their birth families, Holt helps them find loving families through adoption, foster, and kinship care.

Established overseas for more than six decades, Holt International is the model for international adoption and child welfare. World leaders seek the organization’s expertise, and child welfare organizations embrace its partnership.
