Get My Dad to His Birth Mom

Donation protected
Both my sister and I wanted to tell you about the miracle that just happened to us, and how you could help. Our dad Laurence was born in Belfast Northern Ireland. He was put up for adoption and was adopted by our grandparents and was taken to Canada when he was about 3 years old. He has always wanted to find his birth mother but just hasn't been able too. He has tried multiple websites and different things but has had no such luck. Our mom Heather has also tried a bunch, but nothing. Just recently though, my mom by fluke went on one of those family history websites and actually found my dads uncle. She emailed him and he emailed her back explaining how my dads mom is his sister and he gave us her address and phone number. My dad called her on Good Friday and we are going to be keeping in contact with her. My dad was so happy and cried at work when he found out the news about how we had his birth mom's number. He has always wanted this and now he has a real relationship with his mother and he couldn't be happier, and we couldn't be happier for him. He has 7 other brothers and sisters, and that's incredible considering he has always been an only child. They all live in Northern Ireland, and one lives in England. We have now started to plan a trip to Belfast Northern Ireland to go and see our family but the only problem is the cost. Our family isn't the richest family and this trip to Ireland would take a lot of saving up, but we really want our dad to be able to see his birth mom as soon as he possibly can. We were hoping you could help us get our family to Northern Ireland to visit all our relatives we had no idea existed until about a week ago. So please we would really appreciate if you could help us achieve our goal of going to Northern Ireland. We really want our dad to be able to meet his family, and we also want to meet all our new family members. It was a real miracle for our dad to find his birth mom and we just want him to be able to talk to her in person and meet all his siblings. Please it would be incredible if you could help my dad come face to face with his birth mom and we would be internally grateful!
