Help the Donahues to adopt!!

Donation protected
Many of you know that since 2010, Matt & Erin have been trying to start a family of their own. After many years of disappointing negative pregnancy tests, it was determined that the issues preventing this were on both Matt’s & Erin’s sides. In 2021, Erin was diagnosed with the start of early menopause. Her doctor suggested they can get a sperm donor & an egg donor to do in vitro for their best chance to get pregnant….which, to them, was pointless.

At this point, their dream of being pregnant would not happen. However, this realization became a blessing in disguise as Erin realized that her desire to be a mother outweighed her wanting to be pregnant. So....why not adoption? At the start of 2022, they chatted with a few parents they knew who successfully adopted & looked into various adoption agencies. So now is the starting point of their adoption journey. They invite you all to partner with them (prayerfully or financially or even sharing this with whomever you can) to help make their dream of becoming parents come true (as well as helping a child find their forever family). If you would like to help financially support this cause, any monetary gift (WHATEVER the size) is greatly appreciated! Your donation will help offset the costs of home studies, background checks, program fees, placement fees, and other expenses included in the adoption process. & if you do not feel comfortable giving through GoFundMe, please feel free to contact us directly.
