Mother’s Choice is a 25 year old Hong Kong charity that provides care for Hong Kong-born babies and children seeking adoption, whilst also providing care and support to single, young women facing crisis pregnancies and their families. Around 350 volunteers of various nationalities take turns caring for the babies and children at the centre each month. Last year 48 children left the centre for adoption, however 12 children with special needs are still waiting to be adopted overseas.
