Let the fundraising begin!

We are almost ready commit to a little one on Reece's Rainbow! The only hold up is raising the starting $. We need enough for the deposits, homestudy, and donation. We need about $4000 to get things going. I am Putting a Chip-in and a fundraising thermometer on this blog so that people can keep track. Also don't forget about the Amazon associate link! That earns up a percentage of your purchases towards our adoption, and it costs you not one cent more than you would pay otherwise! I love shopping on Amazon for everything from cheese balls to pet medications, books, toys, and games!

Note that I am hoping to raise the majority of our adoption costs through sales of artwork. I am however giving the opportunity for those who would like to help this child come into our family. We will likely have medical expenses from the moment the child comes home, so any money we can keep in savings for that purpose will be helpful. A good portion will likely come from ta returns in the early spring. But for now things are tight, and that is why I have set up the fundraising. 

I can't tell you who we are hoping to commit to until we are set up and funded for this first part. Let that be some incentive though! The faster we get this hurdle out of the way, the sooner you find out who melted our hearts! :) My goal is to have this part funded by Dec 31st. Ready, Set, Go!
