Bulgarian Adoptee Needs Kidney Transplant

Gavin, a 7 year old, adopted to the United States by a military family needs a kidney transplant.
Click here to see his interview on NBC.
Gabika's caseworker has offered to donate her kidney, since neither adoptive parent was a match, but unfortunately she was not a match either.  Please go to their Go Fund Me to contribute, they are only $500 short of their goal.
Gavin's story, though not atypical of Eastern European orphans, is difficult to imagine.  This little guy was in a crumbling orphanage where workers didn't even realize he was deaf, among other medical issues.  He was identified for international adoption and placed on Reese's Rainbow.  He was adopted by an American military family when he was six years old.
Gavin- mnogo kusmet, lybov and nadezheda!  We hope you find a donor and have a happy, fulfilling life!
