Mission Statement

Dillon International, Inc., is committed to providing the best possible lifetime of care for homeless children in developing countries.

When these options are not possible, children are placed with families in the United States and on-going, post-adoptive support is provided for the life of each child. Dillon International, Inc., is also committed to assisting with foster and orphanage care as well as with educational, medical and therapeutic services for the homeless children remaining in other countries who may never be adopted.
