God put the desire for adoption in each of our hearts as we were kids. When we got married we thought biological kids would come right away but instead we started experiencing fertility challenges.
Fast forward a few years after being active in public ministry, church planting, international missions, and the business world, we returned to our childhood dreams to adopt.
Now we are on the journey for our greatest adventure yet, adopting twins! Yes, twins! We are believing for a double portion as we step through the journey to bring home our babies.
One thing we were shocked by is the cost of adoption. That's why we need your help!
Below is the budget breakdown. Become a sponsor of one of our budget line items or donate at a level that help us bring home our babies:
AGENCY APPLICATIONS
Apply to 3 -6 to utilize the multi-agency approach, $3,000.
AGENCY MATCH Includes placement fees. Some agencies count twins as 1.5 placements, so instead of being $25,000 per child, some agencies could count it as $25,000 + $12,500 = $37,500.
BIRTH FAMILY CARE AND COUNSELING These can range depending on the birth family, estimated $25,000.
LEGAL FEES All legal needs for placement estimated $5,000.
POST-PLACEMENT AND TRAVEL Includes the costs for traveling to the birth family, estimated $3,000.
TOTAL ESTIMATE TO BRING HOME OUR BABIES: $73,500
Partnership Levels:
2 partners at 10,000 = $20,000
5 partners at $5,000 = $25,000
11 partners at $1,000 = $11,000
20 partners at $500 = $10,000
30 partners at $250 = $7,500
68 partners = Total: $73,500
Every family needs community support. We are excited to welcome your support from the very beginning of our adoption journey!
