Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,

For those of you who don't know us, we’re Kate and Graham—and we are humbly asking for your help in one of the most important chapters of our lives.

For nearly a decade, we’ve dreamed of becoming parents. We imagined bedtime stories, first steps, crayon drawings on the fridge, and a house filled with laughter. But for years, our path to parenthood has been anything but easy.

After exhausting every medical avenue—multiple rounds of fertility treatments, surgeries, and heartbreak, but mostly prayer and relying on God's call for the next steps—we came to the realization that love builds a family, not biology. And that’s when the door to infant adoption opened for us.

Now, we are fully committed to pursuing private domestic adoption, and we are overjoyed at the thought of welcoming a newborn into our home and hearts. But the reality is: adoption is expensive.

The costs of adoption includes agency fees, legal costs, home studies, counseling services for the expectant mom, and more.

We believe in the village. The one that surrounds a child with love. The one that helps lift couples like us when we’re carrying the weight of something so deeply important. If you're reading this, you’re already part of that village.

We are hoping to raise money to help cover the adoption process and bring our baby home.

We have another puzzle fundraiser going on as well-- if you donate $30, we will add your name to a puzzle piece and then hang the completed puzzle up in baby's room to have them recognize the village that got them there. Please write if you would like your donation to go towards a puzzle piece.

Every single dollar makes a difference—whether it’s $5 or $500. And if you can’t give financially, sharing our story or simply keeping us in your thoughts and prayers means the world.

From the bottom of our hearts: thank you. For your support, for your kindness, and for helping us get one step closer to holding our baby in our arms.

With love and gratitude,

Kate & Graham
