Hi, we are Lacey and Ryan and four years ago we began a journey to fulfill a coveted dream of ours, to build a family. To achieve this ambition, our personal circumstances guided us to the hope and possibility of adoption.
After nine months of preparation, determination and prayer we brought home a beautiful baby girl from Texas, Birdie-Grace. Birdie-Grace has filled our home with love and laughter that has exceeded our wildest dreams and forever changed our lives. Now we feel led to venture through the adoption process one more time. It is our hope to find a child in need of a loving home and provide a little brother (or sister) to Birdie-Grace, as she has requested.
As some of you may or may not know, adoption is a long, uncertain, stressful, and expensive road. Our fundraiser is intended to supplement the significant financial burden of adoption. We are asking, if you feel led, to please help us in our journey to help Birdie-Grace become a big sister. All donations will make an immediate and crucial impact. The breakdown of where your donation will be allocated is below:
Paperwork/fingerprints/background checks etc. = $250 Home Study = $800 Christian Adoption Agency = $4,500 Adoption = $15,000 to $30,000 (varies by state and circumstance) Travel/Rental Car/Hotel = $3,000 (varies by state and circumstance) Additional Expenses = $650
This is a difficult and vulnerable position for us but, because of the above financial figures, we realize that we need help from our community, friends and family. With your love and support, we will be able to have the opportunity to complete our family's dream. We thank you in advance. Your generosity and contribution is an encouraging reminder of why we started this journey.
With gratitude, -The Blackwells-
