Hello! We are trying to adopt from Africa to complete our family. We are very excited about this and hope that you share in our excitement as well. We will be holding some 5K races this summer to help us earn the money needed. Why fundraise for our adoption? There are no adoption loans available, they don't exist. Most people either fundraise or max out their credit cards. We feel this is a better option for us. We would really appreciate it if you could come support us in our efforts and make this a reality for us.
I believe with your help my dreams and the dreams of my son and husband can come true! You know what they say..."If you're going to dream, dream BIG!"
If you would like to help but don't live locally or running just isn't your thing you can donate to us through PayPal. Just click on the "Donate" button below and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for it! Every little bit counts. :)
