Sweet Tommie really needs a family, let us tell you a bit more about him!

Tommie turned 5 years old in May and has beta thalassemia major. He receives transfusions every two months, which is not as frequently as he would receive in the US or how often he needs to be able to grown and develop properly. This is the main reason why he is in urgent need of a family and his adoption should be expedited.

This smart little guy knows his colors, can count to 20, shapes, can repeat short stories, and is learning to name his body parts. He is doing very well developmentally! His favorite game is playing doctor and his favorite toys are cars.

Tommie is described as a quiet, shy, clever, generous active and lovely boy that likes to play with other children. He knows how to care and love his younger brother and sisters in the orphanage and will take initiative to do so.

Samuel is a part of the Half the Sky Children Parent Program and Half the Sky school program. He is very close with his “mom” in the program. He also is very fond of singing and helping the teacher.

His file is currently designated to WACAP with a $4,000 grant! Please contact WACAP for more information on adopting Tommie!
