As it was in 2003, children continue to wait, and the financial costs of adoption continue to be a primary barrier standing between them and families. And with each passing year, the needs continue to grow, not only in numbers but also complexities.
From access to quality medical care and the costs associated with it to the musts for trauma-informed care and support, Show Hope is committed to walking with families through every step of their journey.
But we can’t go there without your support.
During this year's Gifts of Hope campaign, we have set a strategic goal of raising $500,000 by December 24.
We know we can get there, but we need you to help us reduce the barriers to adoption. Will you join us ... once again?
