HandinHand Grant

Sorry if I'm reporting old news. Our agency had this information in their latest monthly newsletter. Maybe it will help someone here:

From American Adoptions:

Families looking for ways to help offset the costs of their adoption now have a new option.

HANDinHAND Christian Adoption, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) private operating foundation that was formed with purpose of helping children and Christian couples through the miracle of adoption. The organization provides matching grants to couples to help offset the cost of their adoption.
Adoptive couples who have a completed, approved home study must first contact Hand in Hand to apply for the matching grant. If a grant is awarded, the family writes letters to their friends and family about their intentions to adopt and the associated costs. Those friends and family are then able to make a tax-deductable donation to HANDinHAND to help the family with their adoption expenses. HANDinHAND will then match those funds dollar for dollar up to the total grant awarded. HANDinHAND then pays the adoption agency or lawyer directly.
