Support Tracy's Return to Ethiopia

This April, I have the chance to travel back to Ethiopia!! My favorite place on Earth. For those who don't know, I have two amazing daughters adopted from Ethiopia. We traveled twice during the adoption process. I was then blessed to travel 2 more times with dear friends who started Awake and Alive. Those trips changed me in ways I can never express. My family currently sponsors two children through Awake and Alive. Meeting my sponsored kiddos and being able to go to their homes and meet their families will be one of my most cherished memories.

My last visit was in 2019. Because of Covid and civil unrest, it just wasn't safe to travel until now. I was asked to go back and of course, I jumped at the chance!!

This fundraiser will help with my flight and in-country fees that go to the Bright Future Academy School and drivers who take such great care of us while in-country. Please go to https://awakeandalive.org/about-us/ and read their story and see the school we work at while there. Those kids will melt your heart. I will include some pictures from my visits on my social media.

I thank you in advance for any amount you are able to share with me. I know things are tight for everyone right now. So if you aren't able to contribute, I ask that you please keep me and my travel mates in your prayers—for safe travels and to bring light and love into the children and families of Kechene.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!

Tracy
