We are currently in one of the many waiting phases of our adoption, specifically for our LOA or “Letter Seeking Confirmation from Adopter.” Â This will be our official chance to tell the Chinese government YES! to our son. Â The time varies for this process, and we are currently on day 42 (yes, I am counting!). Â Our dossier has now been translated and reviewed, it will then be “matched” then we will receive our LOA. Â Once we receive our LOA, we will travel in 8-12 weeks to get our son! Â Until then, we are trying to accomplish as much as possible, other than counting the days.
With all of the waiting, now is a perfect time to kick our fundraising into high gear. Â We are pretty much doing everything at once, and will be working hard over the next 2 months or so until we travel. I wanted to take some time to share all of the fundraisers we plan to do. Â We do not expect everyone to participate in every fundraiser, rather, we want to give lots of options for you to be involved if you want!
- Dessert and Coffee bar and craft show – February 20th – Enjoy some desserts and coffee for $5 while you shop. Â We will have a variety of fun home accessories and furniture to buy.
- Plunder – Vintage inspired jewelry (available at craft show)
- Just Love Coffee (Available at craft show)
- KEEP Collective
- T-shirt through Fund the Nations
- Lifesong – direct give matching grant (donations will be tax deductible)
Here is a sneak peak of our t-shirt fundraiser – we will have a few other options for styles of shirts.
