WHO WE ARE

We encourage you to explore some of the exciting pages we offer those who have a heart for helping Brazilian children.

FROM OUR FAMILIES

LIMIAR is a recognized child advocacy non-profit organization founded by Nancy Cameron in 1984.

LIMIAR's mission is two-fold:
  • to coordinate the international adoption of Brazilian children who have little or no chance of being adopted into permanent Brazilian homes.  read more...
  • to support and operate Casa Limiar, an orphanage in Sao Paulo, Brazil for up to 25 children with physical handicaps and other special needs.  read more...

Donations are Welcome

Limiar is supported largely by donations from individuals and families who have participated in the adoption process and/or believe in the mission of helping Brazilian children in search of permanent homes.

We are set up with PayPal so that you can securely make an online donation:

We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. All donations are tax exempt (US) to the donor. Email us if you would like to request a copy of our authorized letter.
