Help Mark & Magda Adopt Tosia After Tragedy

Donation protected
Help Mark & Magda Adopt Their Niece After Tragic Loss
Goal: $46,000

Tragedy struck when 8-year-old Tosia lost both of her parents in a devastating car accident in Poland. Since that day, she has been under the care of her elderly grandparents, who while loving are overwhelmed by grief and not equipped to raise such a young child due to age and emotional challenges.

Mark and Magda, her devoted aunt and uncle living in the United States, are stepping up with full hearts to give Tosia the stable, loving home she deserves. Their hope is to adopt Tosia while she is in the care of her grandparents, making it as seamless as possible and avoiding any potential for foster care placement. Alongside their sons Patryk, Steven, and Alex, they are beginning the international adoption process to bring Tosia to America and raise her with the care, safety, and opportunity every child deserves.

The cost of international adoption is steep—$46,000—covering home study fees, attorney costs, U.S. and Polish adoption agency fees, and travel expenses. Despite having two young children of their own, Mark and Magda are doing everything they can—working overtime, cutting costs, and pouring their love into making this happen.

But they need our help.

Mark, Magda, along with their sons are some of the most selfless people you could ever meet—always willing to help others, even through their own grief. Now, it’s our chance to rally around them and support this incredible act of love and resilience.

Please consider donating to help ease the financial burden and make it possible for Tosia to start a new chapter surrounded by family, stability, and love. Every dollar, every share, and every kind word helps.

Thank you for standing with this family during the most important journey of their lives.

Below you can find and itemized list of estimated costs provided by their adoption agency, An Open Door, Adoption Agency INC.
