We’ve got some work to do adoption community!



We had such a great time at Missions Fest Vancouver this past weekend at our first ever ABBA Canada booth! We met so many people that have been waiting for a ministry that supports adopting families practically and financially. There were people that came by the table that represent ministries that have a list of people they want to send to us and we met lots of people that are currently in the adoption process and were so excited about the resources and grants that we provide. This is all very exciting, however, it means we have some work to do now.
That’s where we’re calling on you, our adoptive network and support base. At this point, we have around $15,000 in our grant fund and another $3,000 being processed. We are just in the process of giving away our first grant this month and there will be a story to follow. From what we experienced at Mission Fest, there are a lot of families that want to adopt, have a place for a waiting child in a forever family, but finances are a barrier. Our mission is to change that, will you help?
Would you consider, donating towards a family’s adoption, hosting a fundraiser at your own church to raise money or becoming a champion for ABBA Canada to raise funds and awareness of the need. Let’s see these families bring home their waiting child!
