Children of All Nations | Great Wall China Adoption — Seeks Chinese Speaking Intern

Children of All Nations (CAN), operated by Great Wall China Adoption, is a division of one of America’s leading international adoption agencies. CAN is dedicated to improving the lives of children by reaching out to nations around the world to place children and give humanitarian aid globally.

For over 16 years CAN has been placing children, advocating for improved legislation and international relations, and initiating charity programs focused on child welfare.

Great Wall China Adoption is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in Austin,Texas. Since 1996, Great Wall has assisted the Chinese government in placing more than 8,000 children with forever families. Between the headquarters located in Austin, Texas and the sister office in Beijing, China, they work on behalf of families each day to be experts at exceeding China’s requirements and adoptive families’ expectations by staying updated on aspects of China adoption.

Currently, they are looking for a Chinese speaking intern.  The intern will work with staff in China on various tasks including translating adoption documents.  The intern does not need to be located in the Austin areas as the majority of the tasks can be completed remotely.  Interested candidates should submit a cover letter and resume to michael@childrenofallnations.com
