China’s Children International was founded in 2011 with the goal of creating an international community for Chinese adoptees.
For our tenth anniversary and the milestone of becoming a registered U.S. non-profit organization, CCI has the ambitious goal of taking our online community to the next level by creating an independent web platform that would give us the ability to create a tailored online space for the sole purpose of connecting adult Chinese adoptees worldwide.
Our in-house team of Chinese adoptee UX Designers, Carrie Doung, Myah Revilock, and Emma Coath have been hard at work for more than a year to conceptualize and design CCI Web 2.0 from scratch to meet the needs of our community.
Now we need your help to raise 10,000 USD to make this vision a reality.
Note: The percentages listed above are a rough estimate of the cost needed to complete each phase of the new website.
