Adoption Expenses

We understand that it is hard to wrap your head around the fact that adoption is so expensive. It is hard for us to as well! We have created this page as a way to be transparent in our expenses for those that want to learn and those that want to know where their loving support goes. We will do our best to keep this up to date.

Thanks for your investment on this journey both in prayer and in finances.

We are grateful more than words can convey.
