Support us in our race!



We have decided to join Team Orphans this year and race for a purpose.  We will be competing, along with a few friends, in the Fort 4 Fitness Event on September 29th, 2012 and our team goal is to raise $1200.

Our son is running the kids marathon, My husband is running the half marathon and I will be running the 10k race.

Team Orphans supports Brittany’s Hope Foundation, who place grants on special needs children in orphanages (sibling groups, older children, or children with medical needs) to help pay for their adoption costs.

There are more than 147 million orphans worldwide. Many of the children adopted internationally will have medical costs depending on their medical need on top of the cost of the adoption and travel. Many families wouldn’t be able to adopt without these grants. There are so many kids in need of a family! Help us raise money to help one more child come home!

Would you be willing to sponsor us in our race by making a tax-deductible donation to Brittany’s Hope Foundation?   100% of the money you donate will go toward adoption grants.

We also have cookbooks left from our daughter’s adoption fundraiser. If you are interested in purchasing a book for $20, all the money will go to team orphans and towards our goal of $1200. Go to http://www.journeyforourdaughter.blogspot.com/2010/06/cookbooks-are-in.html for more information on the book. Then let us know if you’d like to purchase one. You can pay us in cash or check.

 
Thank you for your support!
