Help Us Fund Our Adoption

Donation protected
Hi, we are the Cohoon Family and we have some incredible news to share!!!

We are adopting! We have been approved for two children but have left our options open for one or two, male or female, including special needs. We are not adopting newborns; they are the most requested and easiest to find families for, we want to provide a home for older children that are harder to find families to adopt. Adoption has always been on our hearts but we got busy raising five kids, now we have the time and attention to focus on a little one.

While we have lots of love, attention, and time for new little ones, we need help. We are financially stable, but the cost of adoption is high, usually costing $50,000-$55,000.00 (that is only for one child), and we need some help covering the most significant fees. We have set a goal here at GoFundMe of $15,000.00 to ease the daunting financial burden. This will help us meet the largest payment of $21,500.00 due at the time we accept a child.

We trust that with your help and our faith, we will overcome all the obstacles and bring a precious child or children into our family. Please know that joining our journey will make you a part of our community and our children's story. Thank you for helping us to make this journey possible!!

We have an ultimate goal of $35,000.00 between this site and another crowdfunding site specific to adoption, in hopes of helping with traveling costs and providing some needed supplies to the orphanage when we arrive. We will give any unused funds to either the orphanage itself or another family also adopting from the orphanage.
