We've gotten asked a lot lately...so how's the adoption process going? Well, we've been working on some things sort of "behind the scenes" and wanted to take the time to provide an update.
When we started researching various things related to adopting, one thing I was interested in was--can we find a way for our family and friends to be able to donate to our adoption and it be tax-deductible? I really wasn't able to find anything initially. However, once we started working with Christian Adoption Consultants, our caseworker Tracie invited us to join an online private Facebook site that is made up of other adoptive families. It was through this page that I was able to find families that had in fact found these resources.
So, after looking further into this, applying, setting up a profile, etc. we are happy to announce that we have a site with Adopt Together.
AdoptTogether.org is a non-profit funding platform helping families raise money to pay for adoption costs.
Our specific page is located at: www.adopttogether.org/thegreens
So, if you would still like to partner with us in our fundraising, you can now do so and it will be tax-deductible. Of course, we have left the PayPal link on our blog, but this is another option that we think some may be interested in.
Any monies they receive on our behalf are held until we need them, and then we fill out a form to have them released to us for adoption-related expenses.
We are excited about each step we are taking to move us closer to bringing another child into our family. Thanks again for your love and support!
