Williams Family Adoption
Donation protected
We are pursuing another adoption or maybe we should say it's pursuing us this time!
We learned this month that Finley’s has a full biological sibling that will be born in the Spring. We have been matched with this child because Finley's birth mom expressed interest in placing with us again. We will be working with the same adoption agency we worked with previously. This was a fast yes for us as we feel like it will be a gift for Finley, and all of us, to have another child to love. The joy that little Fin has brought our family is beyond words!
There are many fees associated with private adoption and we’re going to share a breakdown of the fees that we'd like to invite your help with. It feels vulnerable and humbling to ask our community to partner with us financially. Through Finley's adoption process we had many offers of financial help; so this time around we would love to say yes to any contributions you feel led to give.
- Updated homestudy: $2300
- Agency fees (legal fees, paperwork processing fees, court fees): $35,000
- Birth mother expenses (maternity clothes, food, housing, transportation, medical costs): $13,000
- Post placement fees (travel to Florida for the birth, housing will we wait for ICPC, post placement social worker visits for 6 months): $4,000
Above everything else we covet your prayers for us, and all involved. Thanks for being an amazing and supportive community!
