Additional information that could be useful in making a match The story that was used to give the child to the agency was “a house maid left the child at birth.” The agency got a letter from county kebela #31 around Kazanchis that enabled them to give the child for adoption without the mother consent (the child was a few days old then). Now the child is over 18 years old. He was born in late August or early September 1998 of western calendar around Ethiopian holiday.
