Summer of Hope program matches orphans with host Montana families

These are the words Addis, a 13-year-old girl from Ethiopia, used on a recent evening to describe the time she's spent in Montana. Addis is visiting the state under a program called Summer of Hope, which gives older children living in orphanages a chance to have a summer vacation - and to potentially meet someone who will adopt them.

Note: It's like a traveling adoption block.
