Oxford Adoption Foundation, Inc.
Oxford Adoption Foundation's objective is to help families who could not proceed with the adoption process without additional financial assistance. Before potential adoptive families can apply to their foundation, they should first try to obtain funds from other sources such as friends, relatives, home equity loans, etc. Their typical loan is $5,000 per adopted child and the loan is 0% interest for the first three years; 3% interest for the next three years; and 6% interest for the remaining three years. There is a $100 application processing fee (nonrefundable) for all applicants which must be sent with the application material.
The ABBA Fund provides financial assistance to Christian couples who need help with the "cash flow crunch" posed by adoption expenses. Adopting couples may request financial assistance in any amount, based upon their needs. The couple will enter into a covenant agreement with The ABBA Fund whereby the couple agrees to reimburse The ABBA Fund in manageable monthly payments. Financial assistance provided by The ABBA Fund is interest free. Couples seeking assistance must complete an application, and assistance will be provided by The ABBA Fund in stages as the adoption process moves along.
