I have been researching fundraisers to help offset some of our adoption costs. It feels so foreign to me reaching out for help, but unfortunately, we need help, and our child is worth it! God has put such a strong desire and calling in our heart for adoption, I know we are on His path, and growing our family His way. I was given this awesome fundraiser idea from other adoptive parents.
As many of you know, in the adoption world, it truly takes a village to bring a child home. Financially, emotionally, and spiritually...and we are so blessed and appreciative for all of our support. That is why the puzzle piece fundraiser seemed so ‘fitting’! So many names. So many pieces. All coming together for one goal. One purpose. One Child.
Adoption is a bit like a puzzle....sometimes complicated, lengthy, time consuming, challenging...but, oh so worth it & so rewarding when completed!!!
Would you please consider becoming a piece of our puzzle?
Here are the details for our Puzzle Piece Fundraiser:
• We have created and are having made a very special custom puzzle (pictured below).
• We are asking people to sponsor/adopt a piece of the puzzle...$10.00 per piece.
• Once you have sponsored one (or as many pieces as you would like!)...your name(s) will be put on the back of the puzzle piece.
• Once our puzzle is completed, we will frame the puzzle in double sided glass, and it will hang in the nursery and serve as a constant reminder of all of those who contributed to our journey to bring our precious baby home!
Not only are we raising funds to help us offset the major costs of adoption, but this fundraiser will also result in an incredibly special, tangible keepsake for our child to enjoy for a lifetime. For years to come we will be able to show our sweet child how loved they were before they were even here and how each person was a special piece of their puzzle!
We are so grateful for how God has already provided for us, and are excited to see Him working to bring in the needed funds to bring our baby home! We would like to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts for your contribution to help make our dreams a reality.
