Degnan Family Adoption

Michael Degnan
Michael Degnan North Liberty, Iowa

We’re Michael and Elizabeth Degnan. We met in 2019, married in August of 2020 and since then have been contemplating how we want to grow our family. We’ve separately both been led to consider adoption over the years, but have decided together that is the main way we will grow our family.

We appreciate your interest and investment in our lives and welcome your encouragement and support as we embark on the long road of adoption!


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 “Degnan 10708”, 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.

  • In following IRS guidelines, your donation is to Lifesong for Orphans. This organization retains full discretion over its use, but intends to honor the donor’s suggested use.
  • Lifesong is a 501(c)3 tax exempt organization. Individual donations of $50 or more and yearly donations totaling $250 or more will receive a tax-deductible receipt. Receipts for donations under $50 will gladly be sent upon request.
  • *3.5% fee for donations given with an American Express card
