Professional Portraits of Children Waiting for Adoption
The Heart Galleries across the US provide public
awareness of the need for adoptive families and more importantly
help find permanent families for individual children. Volunteer
professional photographers take portraits of children waiting for
adoption for family recruitment purposes. Their photographs present
the children in a way that a description alone never could! The
result, many children have been adopted.
The Heart Galleries across the US also provide public awareness
of the need for adoptive families and more importantly help find
permanent families for individual children. Families are moved by
the beauty and uniqueness of each child as revealed in the portraits.
Thank You For Your Assistance
Jorianne and Jaleesa have found
an adoptive home!
I am the contact for the Heart Gallery of Northeast
Louisiana, and I was wondering if you could update our information
page with a different childs photo. Currently Jorianne
and Jaleesa have found an adoptive home, and it wouldnt
have happened so soon without your assistance in putting
them on the national site. We received numerous interests
in them strictly from your website. Thank you for your assistance
with finding them a home. I am attaching other childrens
photos and biography for you to put on our information page.
Thank you again for all of your help and support."
Sincerely,
Christi Jones
Heart Gallery of Northeast Louisiana
"The unspoken prayers
in the hearts of all the waiting children are powering
this movement (Heart Gallery) ... a spirit
of hope that is alive and making its presence known
to help them, to speak for them, to create a miracle
of change. It's amazing to see something greater than
ourselves at work."

Who Can Help
Professional photographers, child placing agencies,
concerned citizens, business people, state agencies and others concerned
about child adoption issues have stepped up to meet the need and
present children waiting for adoption with dignity in artistic fine
art portraits.
These beautiful portraits capture the children's individuality,
their smile and spirit. The portraits are framed and displayed throughout
the community in different venues. Adoption premieres, galas, and
expos are organized where hundreds of families come to learn about
adoption and view the children's portraits.
Many of the Heart Gallery children have been placed
with loving adoptive families and many other children have been
placed due to the adoption awareness that is spread throughout the
community through Heart Gallery events.
