Austin & Caiti M.
are adopting a child from United States of America
We have big news: we’re adopting a child!!!
AND WE HIT OUR GOAL OF $35,000!!! 😭🤎 we’ve had donations come through various channels and fundraisers, so they’re not all reflected in this website, but we are fully funded! These funds will help cover adoption fees, home inspection, legal fees, and more.
Thank you so much to everyone!! This generosity is not lost on us!!
We’re so stoked and doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome a beautiful new life into our home!
Thanks for being here and for supporting us! We couldn’t do this without you and we hope that by inviting you into this process, you will see yourself as a part of the community we hope to build around as he/she grows!

Update 3
WE REACHED OUR GOAL!!
February 7, 2023THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Because of your generosity, we have reached our goal of $35,000 and then some! We're still pretty stunned, to be honest. Hard to believe we are at this point! We're so grateful for the outpouring of love, support, and generosity we've received from you all. We couldn't have made it here without you all!!
We're waiting on a couple of state clearances to come back and while we wait we are sending in our final payment to our adoption agency. Not sure how long it will take for them to make our account active, but when it is we will start being put in front of birth moms and families to be considered!! We're excited about what's ahead. We know it can be a long road ahead still but are trusting God. He's carried us this far and we know he won't fail us!
We appreciate continued prayers, both for us and the future birth mom we are paired with.
I'll try to keep this space updated as we go! Thank you again!

Update 2
We are $3781 away from our goal!
February 5, 2023Despite what the website says, we are $3781 away from our goal of $35,000!!! Donations come in through various means, so not all of them are calculated here, but man we are so close!
We are currently waiting on a couple of our state clearances to go through before our home study is completed and then we will be able to be active and put in front of birth mothers / families!!
Thank you for being on this journey with us! For your prayers, encouragement and donations. We’re so thankful for all of you and can’t wait to meet future baby Moore!

We reached our first goal!!
August 6, 2022Thank you everyone who has donated!! Today we reached our first downpayment of $9500!! We had 30 days to collect this, but got here in 2 weeks!! We are completely overwhelmed and grateful for your generosity and support in this way. It's beyond the words I have at the moment, but I hope the depth of our gratitude comes across in some way, shape, or form, because this means the world to us!
What this down payment does is it allows for us to move forward with Lifetime Adoption Agency. I'm not sure exactly what the next phase will look like, but it definitely feels like the marathon portion of this journey. We will work with someone at Lifetime to create a profile, get our home study done, background checks, lots of paperwork, and continue to raise funds!
Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts, for joining us on this journey of adoption and growing our family!! More to come!
