Please help with Adoption Fund for UP Mailman

Our longtime and loyal UP mailman Darryl and his wife (also a US Postal worker) have wanted children for 20 years.

They thought their window had closed years ago, but unexpectedly a baby became available for adoption. They prayed and consulted their church, family and friends about what to do, since they hadn’t been financially preparing any longer for children. 

After much prayer and emotional support from their church, they decided to adopt. They knew they could give this child a loving home and God would provide. The adoption became official in December and Elijiah Targton will be 5 months old in January. 

Today, your neighbors and friends in University Park are inviting you to be a part of a Go Fund Me campaign to welcome Elijiah in a big way, and to enable Darryl and Clubber to provide the means to allow their only child to flourish and have the solid future we all want for our own families. Our goal is to raise $50,000. We have setup this campaign with Darryl’s banking information, so any donations will go directly to his account each week.

Will you consider joining us in financially helping Darryl, Clubber, and Elijiah? My husband John Michels and I have kicked off the campaign with an initial donation of $1000. Any donation will make a difference. If you prefer to donate baby items, please contact Fran Jackson. The Jacksons have been instrumental in starting this fundraising effort. Please feel free to contact Radha or Fran with any questions. Thank you!
