In 1997 foreign correspondent Neely Tucker and his wife, Vita,
arrived in Zimbabwe. After witnessing the devastating consequences
of AIDS and economic disaster on the country’s children, the couple
started volunteering at an orphanage where a critically ill infant,
abandoned in a field on the day she was born, was trusted to their
care. Within weeks, Chipo, the baby girl whose name means “gift,”
would come to mean everything to them. Their decision to adopt her,
however, would challenge an unspoken social norm: that foreigners
should never adopt Zimbabwean children. Against a background of
war, terrorism, disease, and unbearable uncertainty about the
future, Chipo’s true story emerges as an inspiring testament to the
miracles that love—and dogged determination—can sometimes
achieve.
