My husband and I are considering international adoption (younger child through Russia) at this point. We are starting to save $ while researching everything and making sure this is the right path for us. I didn't know if any of you had any $ saving tips, fundraiser success stories, etc.
I bought the book Adopt without Debt which is great and full of ideas but would love to hear from all of you. Thanks so much.
Re: $ raising success stories
I'm hoping Jillian responds...She is also adopting through Russia and did a lot of fundraising. She went into a lot of details on her blog, which I think is a great source or information for international adoptions.
