Help a child find forever love by adoption.
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Amber. This lovely couple is my brother, Jake, and my beautiful sister-in law, Courtney. They feel in love and married in 2018 with hopes to have children. Unfortunately god had other plans. They are unable to conceive on their own so they wanted to extend their home and love with fostering children. They did so and successfully helped several child find peace, love, and stability for the time they were given.
Unfortunately, the state they live in will now allow them to hold a fostering license and an adoption license at the same time. Their journey now is on a special path to giving a loving Christian home to a child in the adoption process.
Unfortunately, the cost is extraordinary and here is where I came in with this special request.
I could honestly say there would be no better home for a child in need with two parents that show love for each other. That built they last 4 years in anticipating a new arrival that they already have a home with a bedroom set for a child or more.
Please, find it in your heart to donate to this special couple to have a child of their own and most importantly help a child find love and stability they deserve.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Amber (future Auntie Amber)
Below you will find their story in their words.
Thank you so much for your interest in our story! When Jake and I first started dating, every discussion about our hopes and dreams centered around having a family. We wanted to have our own children, become foster parents, and adopt children with disabilities. We married in 2018, then became foster parents in 2019. We were blessed with four precious foster children to love. We didn’t realize it when we began this journey, but in the state of Colorado we were unable to hold both a foster license and a private adoption license at the same time. We had some very difficult cases in foster care, and when all four of our babies landed somewhere safe, we heard God telling us it was time to close our foster license, heal, and pursue private adoption. We also were dealing with our own infertility journey. We tried and failed one round of IVF in 2021. As devastating as that process was, we were able to find time and space to grieve and heal from that as well. We ultimately decided we’d rather focus on adoption. We still feel called to foster children, so we are now working toward adopting as many children with disabilities as we are able, then returning to foster care. Unfortunately all of this is terribly expensive! We’ve saved as much as we were able, but to pursue multiple adoptions is daunting. We are humbly asking for financial help on this journey, as well as love and prayer. God has placed this big calling on our hearts, and we are so thankful for all of the support along the way. We could not do it without you!
