Joel and Erika Haas

To the amazing generous donors! Your money is going towards the most beautiful journey and outcome. A baby brought into this world to be loved, cherished, and honored as becoming a part of our family and life.

Here is our story: Joel and I are so excited that we are going through this adoption process in hopes for a child to raise together. Our story is one that is probably similar to many and hopefully will pull on a heart string. We met in 2021 and instantly knew we were each other’s forever. We were soon married and talking about how to have another child. (I have two from a previous marriage) My daughter lives with us and has been excited through every process we have gone through. Unfortunately it hasn’t been easy. I had to have a hysterectomy before I met my husband because my uterus was slowing killing me. It has been hard not being able to bare a child the traditional way, but if it’s meant to be God will show us. We tried two years of IVF with a surroget and three failed/lost pregnancies. This process wiped out our savings as it cost us over $80,000. So we decided to get our fostering license in hopes to adopt that way. This comes with its own set of heartache. With every child we have helped and having to say goodbye because of reunification or payment changes. All of this left sadness in our hearts. So here we are asking for donations of kindness to help us pay for the expenses of adoption. They can range from $35,000-$50,000, so anything can help us reach out goal and hopefully in the end we will have a bundle of baby joy to love and cherish.
