<div>Dear Friends and Family,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are reaching out to you with open hearts to ask for your prayers, encouragement, and—if you’re able—your financial support for our daughter, Adrie.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As many of you know, Adrie came into our lives through foster care, and we were blessed to adopt her and make her part of our forever family. She is now 13 years old—a bright, creative, and kind-hearted young girl with tremendous potential. However, her early years were marked by deep trauma, neglect, and instability that have left her struggling to form healthy attachments and trust those who love her most.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have spent years working with therapists, counselors, and support programs to help her heal, but it has become clear that she needs more intensive, specialized care than we can provide at home right now. After much prayer, research, and counsel, we believe that <strong>Clearview Girls Academy</strong> in Montana is the right next step (please take a look at this incredible program if you’d like: <a href="https://www.clearviewhorizon.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://www.clearviewhorizon.com" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.clearviewhorizon.com</a></a> ).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Clearview is a <strong>Christian residential program for girls</strong> who have experienced trauma, attachment issues, and emotional challenges. It offers a safe, structured, and faith-centered environment where girls can heal, grow, and rediscover hope. The staff are trained to provide trauma-informed care, and the program integrates spiritual growth with clinical therapy (including art, equine, and nature-based therapies) and life skills development. Adrie is eager for this opportunity!
</div>

<div><br />
</div>
<div>As she embarks on this new chapter at Clearview, we as a family will <strong>stay closely connected</strong> to Adrie through visits and regular communication. We are committed to being an active part of her healing process, attending weekly virtual family therapy sessions and bi-monthly in-person family workshops, and being involved in her progress as much as we can.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The program lasts up to <strong>20 months</strong>, and while we trust this will be life-changing for Adrie, it comes at a significant financial cost—<strong>$13,500 per month plus travel and visit expenses</strong>. Unfortunately, insurance only covers about 10% of this amount. The balance is far beyond what our family can manage on our own, and so we are humbly asking for help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We know this is an enormous request. But we also know that God provides through the generosity and compassion of others. If you feel led to support us—whether through a <strong>donation</strong>, lifting our family up in <strong>prayer</strong>, or <strong>sharing</strong> this campaign—we would be deeply grateful.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every gift, no matter the amount, will go directly toward giving Adrie the chance to heal and build a stronger, brighter future. In addition to financial contributions, we cherish your prayers—prayers for Adrie’s healing and courage, and the strength for all of us to embrace the changes ahead.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>You all remind us regularly of the strength and love in our community! If you are able to share our story with your networks or offer words of encouragement on social media, we would greatly appreciate it; spreading the word allows us to reach those who might feel called to walk this journey with us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our goal is not only to see Adrie heal but to inspire others who face similar struggles in our expansive foster and adoptive community. Adrie’s journey touches on vital issues of trauma and the<strong> importance of specialized care </strong>for children who have endured adversity. By banding together and empowering each other, we can make a difference in the lives of many.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for walking alongside us on this journey. We look forward to sharing updates on Adrie’s progress and how her bright spirit shines through this transformative experience. With your help, we believe that a hopeful and healing future awaits her.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love and gratitude,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
