Hi there! Whether you know us personally, are acquainted with us through social media or perhaps are getting to know us for the first time, please accept our sincerest gratitude for giving us your time and consideration.
Over the past year, we’ve been working with Christian Family Care to become licensed to adopt an infant. We had a miscarriage in 2016 and have not become pregnant again since. After rounds of fertility treatments, we decided our time and energy were better spent on becoming parents through adoption. Though this past year has taught us challenging, yet invaluable, truths about the sacrifices that come with adoption, our faith in the Lord’s goodness and provision has given us peace and helped us remain steadfast. We know, without a doubt, that God has already hand-picked our little one and that we will meet them when the time is right.
We are fundraising to cover our final cost of $24,500. If you feel inclined to help us cover this last adoption expense, we would appreciate it if you let us know so that we can thank you personally. We know our community of loved ones has our backs and that everything is in God’s hands. Thank YOU for being God’s hands and feet in supporting adoptive parents like ourselves.
Here is some information about how your donation may be able to help you with taxes:
Christian Family Care (CFC) is a qualifying 501(c) (3) organization that provides adoption services and foster care programs here in Arizona. This may allow adopt fund donations to be counted as charitable giving on your federal taxes. We are only required to pay the $24,500 amount. Any donations above that amount will go toward CFC’s general adoption fund.
For those living in Arizona, you can contribute up to $526 (single person) or $1051 (couples filing together), and may be able to receive a dollar-for-dollar credit on your Arizona State tax return through the Arizona Foster Tax Credit.
For those living outside of Arizona, you are may be able to put your donation towards a tax deduction on your federal taxes as a charitable gift or itemized deduction. You should consult your tax professional about your eligibility for the deductions and credits.
