2018 FACES OF ADOPTION PHILADELPHIA!
by Helpusadopt.org
Meeghan Mullin
This morning I woke up and my youngest daughter, gave me the tightest hug while I was brushing my teeth, She looked up at me with her one buck tooth sticking out and gave me the silliest smile.
Last night, I kissed my oldest daughter in bed and told her that was why she had so many freckles; because of all the kisses I have given her over the past nine years.
There are other children who woke up this morning and had no one to hug, and last night had no one to give them a good night kiss.
Children need homes and deserve to be part of a family.
The reality is this: adoption is expensive, costing on average, upwards of $30,000 , which for most people, is unfeasible. This becomes an enormous obstacle that stands in the way of more than 150,000 children around the world being placed in their forever homes. HelpUsAdopt.org is an adoption grant program that helps to build forever families by reducing some of the financial burden associated with the adoption process. It is a not for profit, inclusive organization, that provides assistance to ALL people, regardless of gender, religion, sexual orientation, or marital status.
In the words of our founder, Becky Fawcett, "We will help you. At helpusadopt, our doors are open to ALL."
Please consider making a donation, no amount is to small, so that one more child may have the opportunity to hug their mom, or receive a goodnight kiss tomorrow.
