Help Rob & Brandon Adopt

Rob and I have been together for 7 years, 5 of which we have lived in our home we bought together, and two year that we have been married. Through this time we have adopted many dogs and fostered a number of others. We both love spending time with our family’s we both are very close with our parents and regularly are spending quality time with them as well as our sisters and brother in-laws. But for the last year we have been working on expanding our family. We have decided we are very ready to adopt a child and make our family whole. The struggle is that adoption is very expensive coming in around $30,000.

Which breaks down to:
$750 initial program fee
$1,500 home study fee
$800 pre-parenting class
$425 home study revision fee (life changes)
$1050 home study update after 12 mths.
$6,000 domestic Adoption program fee
$2,876 legal fees
$25,500 placement fee
Varied medical expenses for mom & baby
Varied pregnancy expenses for mom
$2,000 staff fees
$3,000 post placement home visits

As you can see the financial cost is quite large and is what is holding up the process so we are asking for any assistance that you can provide as we both would love to be dads and hope that you can help us in achieving this and growing our family.
