Danny & Aaron B.
are adopting a child from United States of America
Always… Forever… Dream Big…
We are Aaron and Danny Barnett-Foster. We met in September 2020 and got married in June 2022. We began exploring the adoption process shortly after we were married. Aaron has always wanted to have a child of his own and, although Danny has three wonderful biological children (Collin, 14; Reese, 12; and Evan, 7), he still has lots of love to give to a child. We will be overwhelmed with excitement and joy when our family is finally complete after a successful adoption.
Last summer we experienced a failed placement through the foster system, partly due to discrimination based on race and our sexual orientation. After those experiences we began exploring private domestic adoption. This process is slow, emotional, personal, and incredibly expensive. We believe the adoption will cost us up to $50,000 for our home study, matching services, birth mother’s expenses, legal fees, and travel. We are exploring options for grants and loans to help with the cost, but our hope is to raise at least 1/3 through our friends and family.
Our first goal is to raise $5,000 to complete our home study through Adoption & Beyond. We can’t move forward without your help. All donations, small or large, are appreciated.
