Gift of Adoption Fund

“The Gift of Adoption is the look of hope, the sweet smile, the small hand holding mine, the tentative steps that turn into trust, the comfort that comes from knowing one belongs. Pulled from the streets of an African city, our girls are survivors. The gift of adoption has given them a future. It’s given them security.”

Rick & Ann (adopted Hewan & Berhan in 2008)
