Ways to Give
"Our ‘WACAP kids’ are both adults now, but continue to bless our socks off and we thank God for them! Adoption is near and dear to our hearts. Thanks for all you do uniting children with families and helping those who do not yet have a family." - Michael
For every child who’s adopted, thousands still live in institutions or with families who can’t provide for their basic needs. WACAP is committed to helping as many of these children as we can. Since 1976, we’ve supplied vitamins, health care, medical supplies, toys, clothing and education to more than 200,000 children.
What Can You Do?
Donate money
You can give to support WACAP’s child assistance projects in three ways:
- Give a One-time Gift Online
- Become a Partner for Children (monthly giving program)
- Give by Phone or Mail (contact us)
Donate supplies
WACAP accepts contributions of clothing, diapers, toys and other supplies. Each year, we send more than three tons of humanitarian aid to needy children and families around the world—and to save shipping costs, most of it is carried with WACAP staff members or adopting families when they travel to bring home their children. See a list of most-needed items.
"WACAP is a great blessing to all the special children who wait for families, and I am only too happy to do my part in this good work." - Martha

Shop WACAP
WACAP works with Tapestry Books, an independent literary source for adoptive families, and in exchange receives small portions of proceeds from the purchase of books from Tapestry's online catalog.
WACAP can also earn a donation every time you search or shop on the internet.
GoodSearch.com is a Yahoo-powered search engine that donates half its advertising revenue, about a penny per search, to the charities its users designate. Use it just as you would any search engine, get quality search results from Yahoo, and watch WACAP’s donations add up!
Additionally, GoodShop.com is an online shopping mall which donates up to 37 percent of each purchase to non-profit organizations. Hundreds of great stores including Amazon, Target, Gap, Best Buy, eBay, Macy's and Barnes & Noble have teamed up with GoodShop so that every time you place an online order from those retailers, you can support WACAP.
Just go to Goodsearch.com and be sure to enter World Association for Children and Parents (WACAP) as the charity you want to support.
