BRINGING ‘W’ HOME – WE NEED YOUR HELP!

As many of you know, in 2023, we adopted Aleja, our amazing daughter, when she was 14 years old. Now, we’re on a race against time to adopt her biological brother, “W.” Time is running out—once he turns 18, our chance to bring him into our family will be lost. We have LESS THAN ONE YEAR to make this adoption happen!

The journey to adoption is not just emotionally intense, but it also comes with immense financial challenges. With adoption agency fees, home studies, travel expenses, and several weeks of stay in Colombia, the cost exceeds $50,000. As you can imagine, back-to-back adoptions come with overwhelming expenses.

This is where we need your help.

Every single donation brings us closer to reuniting Aleja with her brother and giving him the forever family he deserves. We know that this is a large ask, but any amount helps—whether it’s $5 or $500, you are making a difference. If you cannot give financially, your prayers and sharing our story can help us reach more people.

As a military family, we have been incredibly blessed by the support and generosity of our community. We are also in the process of starting a new business to create more stability for our family. These are big undertakings, but with your support, we know we can make it happen.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for being a part of our village and helping us bring “W” home.

Together, we can make this dream a reality.

All our love and gratitude, Alyssa, Brandon, Cambri, Dain, and Aleja
