...We've always known we wanted to adopt but now we don't think we can afford to....
...After all the infertility treatments we've been through, now we don't have the money to pay for an adoption. Will we ever be parents...
...I feel like my family isn't complete yet and I want to adopt, but the money is just not there.....

If you can relate to any of these thoughts, you came to the right place! Some of you are determined to find a way to afford adoption; others are almost convinced they can't. Either way, I sincerely hope that this website will be a place where you can come to be encouraged and find a wealth of information on your road to affording adoption!

You may want to start by finding out more about me. I'm an adoptive mom of 2 wonderful boys and a beautiful daughter. Then look around the site. We have the most up-to-date list of adoption grants and loans on the web, tons of great ideas for fundraisers, ways to save on adoption travel, employer benefits, and the list goes on - and we're updating and adding to the site all the time!

I am so excited to have the chance to help other families experience the joy of adoption! I sincerely hope this website is just what you've been looking for!
