Tyler and I have been in the adoption process for almost two years. This round has taken much longer than Adeline’s adoption. It has been a long and emotional journey, especially after we experienced a disruption in December 2021. However, we so are excited to be matched with an expectant mom in Arizona that is due very soon! We have gotten to talk to her on the phone and have been able to meet several tangible needs that she has. We are very excited to have been awarded a $2500 matching grant from Lifesong for Orphans. This will help us tremendously as we pay our agency fee at placement, as well as travel and legal fees.
STRIPE charges an online processing fee (2.2% +.30 USD per transaction)*. Your donations will be decreased by this amount. You may also send a check payable to “Lifesong for Orphans”. In the memo line please write “Bridges 10311”, to ensure it is credited to our account. Please mail to Lifesong for Orphans, PO Box 9, Gridley, IL 61744.
Lifesong has been blessed with partners who underwrite all U.S. administrative and fundraising costs (TMG Foundation and other partners). That means 100% of your donation will go directly to the adoption.
