Meet Archimedes! This cheerful 14-year-old is waiting for a permanent, loving family. Could you or someone you know be the right family for Archimedes?

Archimedes is described as active, gentle and easy-going. He plays on his school’s volleyball team. Archimedes is also an amazing artist! He creates amazing cartoon anime characters.

Archimedes has positive relationships with the grown-ups in his life – including his social worker, teacher and house parents. The staff from his previous care center will visit him and take him out to lunch on occasion. His house parents report that when he gets into a dispute, he calms down with a simple discussion. He desires to be adopted by a family one day and says that he hopes to be the youngest in the home.

An ideal adoptive family should be familiar with older child adoption. They should also have access to educational support to help him reach his potential.

If you think you or someone you know could be the right family for Archimedes, please email our waiting child team at [email protected]! We cannot share photos of him publicly due to country restrictions on privacy. However, we do have more photos and videos available to share with prospective families.
