Charlize Theron Credits Exposure to Orphanages in South Africa for Her Passion for Adoption

Dear Adoption and Orphan Advocate,

Do you want to raise children with a passion to carry out James 1:27’s call to visit the orphan in their affliction?  Take a tip from actress and producer, Charlize Theron.

According to People Magazine, “Theron, who adopted Jackson in 2012 and August three years later, says she always saw adoption as her pathway to motherhood, due in large part to her upbringing in South Africa and early exposure to orphanages and children in need in her community.”

And to all the single ladies out there who have ambitions of pursuing adoption after marriage, Theron has another tip:  “Even when I was in relationships, I was always honest with my partners, that adoption was how my family would look one day,” she says. “This was definitely not a second option for me. It was always my first.”
